Austroplebeia cassiae is a small eusocial stingless bee first described by Cockerell in 1910[2] and it is found in Australia (North and Eastern Queensland).

Their face has a thick white hair with at least one full marking hidden underneath it.

They also have a short entrance tunnel compared to the rest of the Austroplebeia species.

[3] Like most species of Austroplebeia, A. cassiae constructs a lacy mesh of fine resin droplets around the entrance at night.

[4]This Austroplebeia species is the second most commonly kept in managed hives in Australia after A. australis.
