darcy60Description
Appears to be a Stingless bee; but records of Tetragonula/ Austroplebeia aren’t available in my location.
Was 17 degrees Celsius and very windy when it flew onto my hand; in the middle of a grassland. I haven’t travelled anywhere distant from this locality for it to be a hitchhiker.
Not sure if 2 or 4 wings
