Hey Im Haasi,
yesterday i caught an Ant"Queen", and she got Wings on so i waited 1 Day if she loses them(When i picked her up she didnt wanted to fly away) . She lost 1 Wing and has now 1 left, but i dont know if it is a injured male or a ant queen losing her wings. Theres a picture:

A queen, probably Formica or Camponotus.
