They are Corydoras schwartzi.

I concur. Checked with my Kobayagawa book, and the closest match is indeed schwartzi.

However, it's possible to confuse them with ornatus, and somewhat with ambiacus according to my book illustrations. I suspect the body spotting and face mask are diagnostic for schwartzi though. There are several related species that differ in having a jet black dorsal, burgessi being one of them.
