If you mean identify, then yes, this is Colobopsis sp.

 

Can't do much without at location, at the very least. Please refer to the ID post guidelines.

This is likely a Camponotus nearcticus or caryae queen. Please follow ID guidelines next time, its really not that hard.

Hi there! I went on a 6 month or so hiatus, in part due, and in part cause of the death of my colonies. 

However, I went back to the Sierras, and restarted my collection, which is now as follows:

Aphaenogaster uinta, Camponotus vicinus, Camponotus modoc, Formica cf. aserva, Formica cf. micropthalma, Formica cf. manni, Formica subpolita, Formica cf. subaenescens, Lasius americanus, Manica invidia, Pogonomyrmex salinus, Pogonomyrmex sp. 1, Solenopsis validiuscula, & Solenopsis sp. 3 (new Sierra variant).

I don't think this is Camponotus, the head is off.

We really need a measurement and a closer picture of the head. I think it's Camponotus nearcticus.

It wouldn't be anything else this time of year.

The first and second photographs make the head look pretty flat, although it could be a Myrmentoma group Camponotus queen.

 

You still have yet to provide a location.

This seems to be Camponotus caryae, but we won't be able to tell for sure without a measurement.

before you all jump into throwing out your id's please get more data, since he is in Eastern Turkey (Turkiye'nin dogu tarafindan) your C.nearctics, C. caryae are a good continent and one ocean off.....Since he is from Kurdistan perhaps look at Camponotus kurdistanicus

 

kardesim, senin buldun karınca bir Camponotus turudur. Türkiye'de bir kaç turu Camponotus bulunur,\senin buldun hangi turunun çözmek icin daha fazla aristirma yapmamız gereklidir

I would say:  C. abrahami or C. piceus perhaps.  Most likely in the Camponotus lateralis  species group, thus limiting  possible species due to location.  We need some clear close ups to see key characters more easily.  

 

Kardesim, turlerin tanımlanmasinda yardimci olacak daha yakin ve ayrintili fotograflar elde edebiliyorsan memnum olgacagim.

Might be worth throwing Camponotus fallax into the mix. Please include measurements and some head shots, if possible.
