''Plebeia'' is a genus of mostly small-bodied stingless bees, formerly included in the genus '' Trigona''. Most of the ~45 species are placed in the subgenus ''(Plebeia)'' (''s.s.''), but there also are four species in the subgenus ''(Scaura)''. They differ in only minor structural details, primarily of the hind leg, from other genera that were formerly treated as constituents of ''Trigona''. In some classifications, the genus ''Schwarziana ''Schwarziana'' is a relatively small genus of South American Meliponini, stingless bees. Like other stingless bees, ''Schwarziana'' are eusociality, eusocial, with large colonies primarily composed of workers and one queen.
