Sold as L092

This girl (and her friend) was sold to me as L092 (sorry for the poor pictures):

^^ general color and tail pattern visible

^^ head pattern and coloration visible

I am under the impression that is probably another Lasiancistrus, as the fish do not have any light spots. They are usually plain brown. The tail has a distinct double coloured marking and is triangular.

Does someone know what i have, or how i can identificaty them

Thank you!
