Queen ID: Tulsa, Oklahoma

I caught a very small queen on 05/05/2019. She's only about a 1/4 in long. She has already shed her wings and started laying eggs. I have an idea of what species she is, but I wanted to make sure.

Re: Queen ID: Oklahoma, USA

We don't have permission to view the photos.
Sorry about that, try it now. I have a possible ID for the larger of the two, Crematogaster Sp.
