Hi,

 

I'd love if somebody can help me identifying these two queens. I got them after their mating fly here in Yucatan, Mexico.

 

The first one I'm almost completely positive is a Crematogaster sp, I'd just like to be sure.

As you can see in some pictures, they have a lot of brood.

 

The second one I guess it's a Solenopsis sp:

She also has some brood, but not as much as the previous one.

 

Thanks!

Yes, the first one is Crematogaster and the second one probably Solenopsis.
