Can anyone help with these, seen in Switzerland around beginning August?

Hi, Simon. I'll be brief, as I'm answering from an iPhone and it's fiddley!

The first is most likely a small skipper, judging by what I can see of the sex brand. The next is a quite standard false heath - that is the normal Swiss form. Then a female large ringlet, form adyte, and finally a female of either small or Essex skipper.
