First two are H. mabouia, last is H. garnotii.
Edit: stupid iPhone, thought it was certainly garnotii at first glance. Hard to tell after zooming, but still leaning garnotii.

I felt certain the last is garnotii. Was leaning towards mabouia on the first two, as umop stated, but I only feel sure about the last one.

3rd the motion.
Last one seems to have the lights spots you see on H. garnottii often.
Just as a reminder, this was a nice post of our Jake Scott in 2012.

What the others have said. I'm 100% confident on the mabouia, and I trust the judgement of the others on the garnotti.
