Looks like some sort of Camponotus to me.

I believe it is apart of the Camponotus maculatus species complex. Would need more detailed pictures to be more specific.

Update:
Two of the skates have now removed their wings so I’m hoping they are fertile

You can't take them back with you.

 

I agree with Camponotus.
