Camponotini, probably Colobopsis. Fully claustral.

Hello everyone, I am new to this forum. I need help. What kind of queen ant species is this? I captured this ant few days ago. If you know this species, is it semi or fully claustral? 

The Queen Ant Pic is in my profile picture or hereview?usp=sharing

You should follow the ID Request format that's clearly pinned at the top of the ID Request page.

 

Your picture also did not embed nor does it give us enough information to ID it.

 

Also, please do not just leave blank posts, it is considered spam on this forum.

What country was this found? Perhaps we can narrow it down to species.

I don't know why but it oddly looks a little bit like Camponotus nearcticus.

Well if it's from the Phillipines then it's 100% not nearcticus.

But there are Camponotus species in the Philippines. So is it Colobopsis?
