Lepidocyrtus cf. helenae
Based on Christiansen & Bellinger (1998) the pigmentation pattern matches best with Lepidocyrtus helenae. Only the pattern on the 4th abdominal segment is too broad. According to C&B it is a narrow band. It could be a well pigmented dark specimen.
Sorry for any inconvenience caused.

Willowsia cf. platani
Records of platani need to be confirmed. Could also be Lepidocyrtus sp.
