Have you got any pictures of the queen?
Camponotus Modoc Queens:
Gold: Four workers
Bronze: It's complicated
Silver: Gone :,<

Tetramorium Caespitum Queens:
Rose: 5-6 workers
Iris: Likely not fertile
Wings: Almost certainly not fertile
Stubby: Gone :,<

Wait is there such a thing as yellow trapjaw ants? Her jaws seem to be at a very wide angle?
Can you post more detailed pictures from different sides? And tell us how long she is?

Could it be Anochetus- small trap-jaw ants??
