long nosed trilineatus - leopardus ??

Found these in a tank marked "julii" (of course)

In addition to the long nose, these fish are at least 1/2" longer than the average adult trilineatus.

The closest I've found so far is the third picture for leopardus in "Identifying Corydoradinae Catfish". But the center line is much thicker on these fish.

They're a little like C115.

Could also be one of the color forms of C42.

I would argue C. leopardus, the colour pattern is quite variable as with most of the spotted/blotched species.
