Hello guys, today I've captured a small queen ant and I'm not sure what's her breed.
Here are some pictures. :) Thanks in advance.

An Arboreal Sp; Perhaps From The Myrmicinae Sub-Family?

I don't think she's arboreal, but you are correct as to Myrmicinae.

Measurements will greatly improve the chances of identifying your queen.

I think it's Myrmecina graminicola.
I'm right?

Tetramorium sp.

It is not of the genus Tetramorium because its gaster is orange
