 Arsinoe IV
Berenice IV is not even considered as a candidate, presumably because such an interpretation would require that her husband Archelaus was given priority as king, a doubtful but not impossible proposal, though there is as yet no clear evidence that Archelaus was ever king.
Berenice IV (calling herself Cleopatra) -- can be ruled out, since, if this were correct, the "year 1" would have to belong to Archelaus.
But she is unlikely to have left Arsinoe IV alone with her army, so it would appear that Arsinoe IV had returned earlier, possibly in order to become Ptolemy's queen, or that Strabo was in error.

 Ptolemy IV
Polybius' description of the death of Ptolemy IV is lost, but he introduces his account of the succession of Ptolemy V (15.25.3) by the phrase "after four or five days", suggesting perhaps only a brief period of concealment.
The general opinion of modern scholarship is to suppose that Arsinoe was killed by Sosibius and Agathocles after the death of Ptolemy IV, and that the delay in announcing Ptolemy's death was used to effect this murder.
If Arsinoe III was murdered after Ptolemy IV's death, then it must have been very soon after, and its not obvious why her body would be clandestinely disposed of.
