Definitely A Queen Of Sorts - Possibly [Camponotus Sp.]
Measurements? Also Take More Clearer Shots As Well, For An Even More Accurate Confirmation.

I need to say that she was very agresive today. I don;t know why was that mb coz the sun today was sharp or mb becouse i placed here in blasshause and temp was too high or she dosen;t like the smell of gasseline or she is hungry... eh i know nothing xd

She have red legs if that helps and a middle setion is red from the bottom. She also has big mmm jaws. Do i need too feed here ? Or i just need too leave her in peace in the test tube ?

about mesurments i think she is something around 0.7-1.0 long and 0.3-0.5 wide. i don't know how accuret is that xP

Oh and iam from Poland i dont know if that helps but i gess.i should Tell. :p

The photos need to be less blurry to get an ID.

I think my phone is unable to get Better picks in macro scale xP. But i will do my best my first queen can't die like this!!

I can barely see her, but she looks like a Formica social parasite to me. Unlike many other social parasites, she would only need Formica pupae. It won't hurt to offer her a tiny sugar meal.

I'm thinking Formica rufa, but I can't be completely sure. (According to Antweb, they live in Poland.)

Yes, that helps alot! Antweb lists all the species in Poland, and every other region in the world. (Even though there are 24 different species of Formica in Poland, there are 390 Formica species word wide!) So yes, this helps narrow it down alot. Formica is one of those genera where all the species look just about the same. I've had some experience with keeping Formica argentea myself, which also is black with red legs. An interesting thing I discovered is that Formica argentea can have repletes! I just fed and fed and fed my colony until they refused to eat anymore. By the time that happened, there were several gorged workers with huge abdomens, which must have been five times their original size! (Not as big as honey pot ants, but still kind of big.)
