I guess nobody knows for sure. Try to check what agencies want and what sells there. Here is a blog entry which tries to summarize this:

They look to me for stock, but I have to inspect them at 100 or 200 % to look for artefacts and noise before submitting

Looks good... is the last one a bit over-saturated or over-exposed (red) though?  Can't tell for sure at this size...

Yes, I think they would make good stock.  The bugs are close enough and the nature shots have enough punch.

Like i mentioned in the other thread though - straighten up your horizon in the first image.  The water lilly image looks a little crooked as well, you could straighten it up if there was room, but could probably get away with keeping it as it is as well.

Then the only other thing is noise (and make sure the focus is spot on).  The last image has too much noise for sure (It was easier to see the noise on our website).

The horizon looks a bit tilted in the first one, and you might want to check around your spider's legs for chromatic aberration (purple fringing).  I'd say go for it.  :)

after the adjustments already mention, yes, these would be good for stock -- Despite the ms faqs sayiing 'no flowers', etc, these sorts of shots do sell -- they just sell at about 10% of what models in business might sell for; and there's a lot of competition -- the good news is the half life for these sorts of images ismuch longer than model based images [unless spiders start wearing bell-bottoms]

The first and second are stock material for sure.

I agree  and perhaps might attract sales if technically ok of which the second is not ( over saturated)
