Thanks, @ponerinecat, @Ant_Dude2908 and @AntsBC . Really appreciate the quick responses. I have several Camponotus floridanus as well and 2 other queens that I haven't identified yet. I'll be back to pick you brains when I get better pics of them.

Thanks!!

Help? This queen is 5-6 mm long, found in Tampa, Florida during mid to late June, 2019. Kept her in test tube until had 15-20 workers, then moved to formicarium. She seems to be doing very well and currently has around 50 workers.

I think it is Solenopsis Invicta, but I'm not sure. Any idea?

Thanks in advance!!! This is driving me nuts, lol.
