Very nice photos, but have you ever tried using a polarizer to cut the glare down? I find it especially distracting on the last one.
Thanks 
Well I did play with polarisers ages ago but basically they do not work with flash unless you cross-polarise with polarisers on the flash as well - this results in a rather large light loss (at least 4 stops).
The difference between the first 3 shots and the last 2 shots, is simply because I was shooting with a much lower lens and flash angle in the first series- this helps to reduce the reflections. In the last 2 shots I wanted to capture just the carapace colour/pattern rather than the bug itself so was shooting at a much higher angle.
