Hi Peter,

The first pair look like Leiobunum blackwalli with a female on the left, male on the right. If you have resized them maybe you could expand the originals to see if there is a pale ring around the eye rims, but the shape looks correct.

The second one I think is a female Leiobunum rotundum, this should have black around the eye rim but they can be pale in the gap between the eyes.

Its hard to tell from those images really, its one or the other, L. blackwalli has a dark inner ring, and L. rotundum has dark outer rings ...

But I had a Leiobunum a couple of days ago which appears to be all black. So I've put the photo to one side, until I have more time to think about it!
