I just received the following from my friend Steve:

The Convergent Ladybug Beetle looks like a Multicolored Asian Lady Beetle. The side view of the pronotum is white but on Convergent Ladybug Beetle it should be black with pencil thin white edges.

The unidentified damsel looks like a male Fragile Forktail. There is an interrupted green stripe on the top of the body forming an exclamation point.
