Question What type of Otocinclus is this?

I'm thinking they are either of these, but I don't know, could be something else...

What size are these fish? Caxarari only goes to one inch.
What about Macrospilus?

Could be.

Good catch I was so caught up in stripes, pattern and blotches, that I didn't even notice the size. They are close to 1.5 inches. SO, caxarari is out, macrospilus is in the running.
