#3 definitely looks to be Acromyrmex. The other 2 might be Tetramorium spp. but I am really unsure. It would also help if you could get clearer pictures.

No Tetramorium in Brazil, if that helps. Waiting on measurements before it's worth putting the effort in.
If you enjoy my expertise and identifications, please do not put wild populations at risk of disease by releasing pet colonies. We are responsible to give our pets the best care we can manage for the rest of their lives.
