Hi Guys. I Found some ant alates/queens.

Hey all. I caught my first queen ant today!!! I had collected a male and a female alate but upon further viewing, I noticed that they might both be female alates. So I went back to where I had collected the alates and on the way- Bam! Queen Ant! Anyway... I need help identifying it. Here's the pics:...

I'll take better pics once I get a new phone next week
