I saw these two fish swimming around in the sea of products of our favorite auction site, and they were so low priced I had to get them. The problem is the seller only said "found in country side", so I'm hoping with a little bit (or a lot) of help from you guys we can figure it out. They are not in my hands yet, so I can't get more/better pics. Thanks

The first one is Lycoptera davidi from the Lower Cretaceous (Aptian) Yixian formation in China. Not sure on the second one but looks to be the same species.

Yup. Both Lycoptera davidi. 

Possibly different locations, though.
