Hi! I just looked at your queen, and she seems to be a claustral Formica sp., such as F. montana, F. neoclara, or F. neorufibarbis.
If you enjoy my expertise and identifications, please do not put wild populations at risk of disease by releasing pet colonies. We are responsible to give our pets the best care we can manage for the rest of their lives.

Thank you! Thank you!!!!!! I looked at some comparison pics and geo location. Looks closest to Formica neorufibarbis for sure.
