I purchased 4 little corys a few weeks ago for my planted aquarium and I have no idea what they are.

I've photoshoped this pic of a Bandit cory to show exactly what mine look like:

Any ideas?

Thanks guys. I guess they are Bandits, but just with more black in the dorsal fins than in the other pics I can find. :) When I was mentioning that they were bandits to the guy who was fishing them out for me, he was pretty confident that they were something different... That's largely why I was confused.

Here's a pic:
