Not enough detail here for a confident id. Why do you think they are guichenoti?

I got a better look at it before I managed to get my phone out by which time the closer one was almost out of sight. I saw the further one dash off as I took the photo.

I'm happy to take it to Lampropholis and it could be guichenoti but I can't tell from this image.
