Need to be identified ASAP!

These two alates were found being attacked by ants and were saved. Nothing else about them are known or where they came from. They were found in front of a colony of ants when being attacked, a third one was ripped in half when I found them. I need to know what species these alates are ASAP. Thank you for all the help.

P.S I could get the picture to work properly so here are links to each queen I think they are the same species.

It's okay, I'll try to get better pictures. But to make a new topic. Go to the part of the forum where you want to talk about (I.D ants for example). Then towards the middle-ish top left says "New topic" Click and go from there.
