Hi I need to find the species of these ants.
Size: Around 14mm
When: Around 7/17/2023. Around 5:00
Where: Oconomowoc, WI. Apartment complex.
Appearance: Black with a white/brown stripes on gaster/abdomen. Sort of a boxy head.
Behavior: Once I got her in the test tube she was not happy. After 20 minutes or so she was staying by the cotton ball by the water.
I need to know what species of ant this is?

Can you take a picture and send it over? That would be a lot better!

As you can see the queen does have three workers. They have been through a lot of moving between test tubes because I'm new to this.

Looks like a species of Camponotus to me. (Carpenter ants)
