Very difficult from this image, do you have other/better images of the face?

Nice picture they look like Carollia perspicillata - Seba's short-tailed bat one of the commonest frugivorous bats.

As suggested by Batdan, my initial thoughts were also of Seba's, quite commonly found in the Pantanal, certainly the north. Your new images further support that ID.
