Confirmation on tetramorium species of ant?
This is a queen ant caught in Provo, Utah around June 30th of 2018 outside of a townhouse. She is approximately 8 millimeters long. I strongly suspect that she is a pavement ant, but could I get confirmation from anyone? Thanks!

It is not a pavement ant

What species of ant could it be then?

I don’t know, but there are many charts on the internet where you can find out. I found out that my colony is a Lasius Niger using one of those.

Looks like tetramorium immigrans to me. Online ant map type things are not necessarily accurate or complete.
Proverbs 6:6-8
Go to the ant, you sluggard;
consider its ways and be wise!
It has no commander,
no overseer or ruler,
yet it stores its provisions in summer
and gathers its food at harvest.
