Hey all.
I caught my first queen ant today!!! I had collected a male and a female alate but upon further viewing, I noticed that they might both be female alates. So I went back to where I had collected the alates and on the way- Bam! Queen Ant! Anyway... I need help identifying it. Here's the pics:

Re: First Ant Queen!
I wont be able to help with specifics, but could you please post measurements, and city/state where you found them? Will greatly help others identify for you.
