Spectra of the two possible WC stars – J053348.94-701323.5 and J055825.96-694425.8 – that occur in our sample. All spectra were normalised and translated vertically in steps of four units to increase the visibility of the plot. The vertical grey lines indicate the wavelengths at which spectral features of H I (solid lines), He i (dotted lines), C II (dashed lines) and O ii (dot-dashed lines) are expected, corrected for the average radial velocity of the LMC.
