8 is a Phalera species (Notodontidae)Thanks, Les, Aaron, for the comments and the IDsThe bee mimic is a Melittia sp.(Sesiidae) and #5 is an Antherea sp.(Saturniidae).
Nice collection of bromeliads btw.
All taken at a highland in Pahang. Lots of insects and moths there in the morning. They leave the light on at night to attract bugs. In the morning, lots of birds will come to prey on the insects. A great place for birders and macro photographers
