Any help with this lady would be appreciated.  I'm new to ants, but already addicted!

 

1. Location of collection: floating in pool (thought she was dead!) in Jacksonville FL

2. Date of collection: June 19, 2020
3. Habitat of collection: Urban
4. Length: 5mm (see pic with ruler)
5. Coloration, hue, pattern and texture: golden brownish, with "striped" appearance to gaster
6. Distinguishing characteristics: very tiny petiole that is only visible when she curls her gaster under (see pic)
7. Anything else distinctive: many, small oval shaped eggs (see pics);
8. Nest description: N/A

9. Nuptial flight time and date: N/A
10 . Post the clearest pictures possible of the top, side, and face of the ant in question, and if possible, their nest and the habitat they were collected in.
