Is this tetramorium or phedole

[Dearth335]

I assume this queen is a Tetramorium but i just want to make sure, also she has workers for comparison.





sorry about the fuzzy image quality

Not tetramorium. Something else...

[Dearth335]

Let me know if you need better image quality. I will try to get better images.

Yea tetramorium workers aren’t really that red

[Batspiderfish]

I wouldn't make a guess just based on coloration, but I can hardly see the ants.

I'll take new images; those workers are a month old BTW.

Yea you’re right, the ones I have though are like jet black, a completely different color. Although it could be a different species...
Better pictures of the queen would be good, but she does look like tetramorium.

I'd say pheidole since the queen's head is so large. Perhaps Pheidole Pallidula.
Once (if) they produce majors, (huge heads), that'll narrow down the options.
