Some Insect Digital Jigsaw Puzzles

Directions for the Digital Jigsaw Puzzles: The following are some 16-piece jigsaws and a 9-piece jigsaw of "mystery" insects. Digital puzzle pieces cannot be upside-down but can only be right-side-up (in a two-dimensional sense), so this makes the solving of such puzzles relatively easier. Of course, these do not have tactile equivalents in the way cardboard jigsaw puzzles would.
