Well, Temaikén is a great place, it has the best bird collection and best facilities of all argentinian zoos, however it does not have many species. Buenos Aires Zoo has meny species but it's a very old urban zoo, so it has the common problems that the city zoos often have: big animals in small enclousures, old cages, no land available for expansion; nevertheless it's a nice place. Mundo Marino is a very simple oceanarium; in order to see elephants seals, you have to watch the sea lion show. Mar Del Plata Aquarium has elephants seal in the sea lion show and in the sea lion habitat, however it does not have a killer whale as Mundo Marino. Florencio Varela Zoo and La Plata Zoo are very simple zoos but both have a great collection of native animales. Those are the most important places in Buenos Aires, there are other good zoos but they are very far away from Buenos Aires.
The Iguazu Area has great places where you can see native species. Both countries, Argentina and Brazil, have very good bird parks, however I personally prefer the brazilians ones.
About the other sites you mention, I've only been to Sao Paulo Zoo. I visited it five years ago, and it is a really nice place with a good collection and vegetation. I'm afraid I can't help you with the other places, but here in ZooChat there great users who might be able to help you like carlos77, juancho and eduardo_Brazil. Hope you have a great trip!
