Queen ID Needed - Florida, Nov/Dec

Hit her and her mate with the car about a month ago. Since this one didn't splatter like her boy, I figured I'd keep her :D

She started out with wings. Figure they got eaten as there was no evidence of them after about a week.
Looking for an ID so I can better understand breeding conditions.
No luck so far at 68F in a test-tube setup.

Anyone be able to confirm?

I can't say for sure, but it does seem to be Solenopsis.
