Unknown Surinamese Myiarchus flycatchers (1 Viewer)

Hi all!

Here are some interesting birds I saw last month in Suriname. Maybe someone can help me ID these?

Photo 1 and 2 are a pair of birds seen on August 31st 2021 in Sipaliwini district (interior). In lower canopy of hilly terrafirme forest edge.
I was thinking off Brown-crested due to pinkish base of bill and overall rufous apperance.

Photo 3 was on the same day and same place but in a plantation. This one makes me think of dusky capped, but i have seen this species before in W Ecuador and there it was significantly smaller?.

Photo 4 was taken on the 23th of August in the Commewijne district (Coastal plain), in cultivated/swampy habitat. Here i'm not quite sure about either short-crested or swainsons.

I hope someone can help me further.
Thanks in advance!

Cheers,
Daan
