I found both of these girls under rocks out in the high desert
The first queen is 8mm with a black gaster and a red mid section with bright red coloration on the underside of the mid section. It has dark legs and a dark head.

This image was made brighter



The second queen is similar in coloration except a little brighter and with bright orange red legs. She is 9mm long, and has a circular mid section.

Here's a picture that's been brightened to show the pattern on her mid section
