I can't really see that well from the photo, but that could very well be Pheidole. Head is quite large for Tetramorium, or maybe I'm wrong

Sorry for the photo my dad took it because I’m on vacation! Just last night I was looking at Pheidole queens and thinking “Hey these look like my tetramorium queen!” What size are Pheidole queens?

There isn't an exact size for them but the average species size is about the same as the one you have there. This queen could be Pheidole Pallidula.

When I get back home I’m gonna take a pic with my macro lens.
