I'm not expert in lophs, but that one looks more like an asteria than a loph to my untrained eye.

Isn't Lophophora jourdaniana the only Loph that produces a purple flower?

I don't think that 4th one is a Cleistocactus. It's a rather small low quality picture though so it could be. I think it's probably an Oreocereus maybe trollii.
