Need help identifying some plants

I have gotten all of my carnivorous plants from California carnivores. Something I noticed, is that their plants usually come with a plethora of Drosera and Utricularia. Would anyone be able to help identify some drosera and some other stuff for me?
Here are pictures of some stuff:
Are these little green things pinguicula?

I believe the green plants aren't pings. The Drosera could be a capensis, but I'm not sure. Usually it's Utricularia bisquamata, Drosera capensis, and Drosera binata that come in plants from CA Carnivores.

The Drosera looks like a small Cape Sundew. The Utrics look like Utricularia bisquamata. No guess on Ping or not Ping.
Good growing,
Mike

If you could get a closer photo of the Ping(?) we could have a better idea. I vote capensis for he Drosera. Binata usually shows widening while quite young.

I don't think it's a ping but I'm not 100% sure still.

Touch it. Does it have stocky leaves? It looks very nice still.

Definitely not Pinguicula. Not Utricularia either. Kind of interesting though.

I think the "utricularia" referred to the blurry
U. bisquamata in the back.
But yeah, definitely not pings or any other kind of CP.

The "ping" is just a weed. I've had them in a few pots before.
