Re: Is this a Queen or not?
The first one with wings is definitely a queen. Not sure of the species. The second one is not a queen. You can tell by the size of the thorax usually.
You may need to get the help of someone from your area of the world to help identify the species. Good luck!

The queen is probably Solenopsis and the worker Odontoponera sp.

Proverbs 6:6-8
Go to the ant, you sluggard;
consider its ways and be wise!
It has no commander,
no overseer or ruler,
yet it stores its provisions in summer
and gathers its food at harvest.

Re: Is this a Queen or not?
Make sure you put her in a testtube setup and then put her in a dark place (closet or such) and leave her alone for about a month. Try not to peek.
That little bottle you show her in will not work because it's capped and she won't get any air.
