Tetragonula hockingsi (Cockerell, 1929) is a small stingless bee native to Australia. It is found primarily in Queensland.[2] The colonies can get quite large, with up to 10,000 workers and a single queen.[3][4] Workers of Tetragonula hockingsi have been observed in fatal fights with other Tetragonula species, where the worker bees risk their lives for the potential benefit of scarce resources.[3]
