I second solenopsis xyloni, from the pictures on AntWiki.

Edit: Looks like she was pretty well fed in her old colony, judging by the slightly distended gaster!

Currently raising: 

Myrmica Rubra (1 queen +  ~5 workers)

Lasius Niger (single queen + ~90+ workers)

Lasius Neoniger (two single queen + brood)

Formica spp. (Queen [likely parasitic, needs brood])

Also keeping a friend's tetramorium immigrans for the foreseeable future. Thanks CoffeBlock!
