These tiny ants were caught inside a hollow twig. In a sandy embankment next to a creek. The workers are 1 mm long. And the queen a small 1.5 mm. They are bright orange, some with black gasters, but majority full orange. The queen is a dark red color, with small yellow stripes on her gaster.

Are you sure you have your measurements right, because I thought Brachymyrmex were the smallest ants (worker-wise), and their workers are 1.5 mm? Do you have any pictures?
