Plain Crested Eleania or something else? Goiás, Brazil (05-2025) (2 Viewers)

I think this is a plain crested eleania, and that would be a first. Can anyone confirm or correct me?

Thank you in advance.

It looks like Southern Beardless Tyrannulet to me. Note also the rufous ('peachy') double wingbar (i.e. not white), which is actually visible. Tail is also rather short for the Elaenia. In case of a candidate Elaenia it is always a good idea to take notes on its call or to record it.
 
Thank you The Fern and Rafael. I have some other pictures to share. Maybe they help with the determination. I'll look up the Southern Beardless Tyrannulet too.

Do these pictures help?
