Hi,

nope, certainly no C. blochi which is a saddle nosed species.
The corys are close to C. agassizii.

Cheers,

I would say C. agassizii in front and possibly C. delfax in the rear, but the image is not the best.

It looks more like C. agassizii in that image, the problem is there are 3 or 4 species from the same location that look similar and as they grow the patterns change which adds even more confusion.
