Queen Identification Help Pls

Could someone indentify this queen I caught in early September in central Pennsylvania. Pheidole, Aphenogaster, and Temnothorax were flying when I caught her. She’s about 5-8mm long and is a brownish red in colour.

Looks like Aphenogaster. More angles would be very helpful.
An ants' strength can be rivaled by few animals compared to relative body size.
