    Ron,

    Since you're just getting into dries, the first 4 colors/shades you mentioned would probably be a good bet to cover a lot of the bugs you'll see. Having said that, I love barred gingers, duns, creams (I have a Collins barred cream that looks like a washed-out cree) and use them for a lot of my dries.

    Regards,
    Scott
