* ''WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}}'' Has the Slurm Worms from Wormulon, slug-like creatures that can replicate themselves when cut in half and they work on the very popular soft drink Slurm. They also have a much larger Queen Slurm, but she is not shown producing offspring. [[spoiler: She is, however, the one that produces all the Slurm by ejecting it from her backside. It seems that new queens can be produced by submerging someone in Royal Slurm, but according to one of the workers, a queen formed by a lower caste produces foul-tasting Slurm]].

In works that feature BeePeople or cartoonish depictions of eusocial insects, "queens" are almost always portrayed as ''[[VisualPun literal]]'' queens, complete with royal attire and a court of loyal subjects; even if the colony is less like a human-like monarchy and more of a HordeOfAlienLocusts, expect the queen to at least possess traits resembling regalia that indicate their authority, such as a biological "crown". If [[GodSaveUsFromTheQueen evil]], expect the queen to act akin to an EvilMatriarch, with no qualms about siccing her WeaponizedOffspring on her enemies since she can just [[WeHaveReserves make more]].

Many insect species in the orders Hymenoptera (ants, bees, wasps) and Isoptera (termites) exhibit a behavior known as [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eusociality Eusociality], a behavioral structure which involves a singular "queen" whose only or primary purpose is to [[MookMaker lay eggs]]. The other members of the queen's colony have the purpose of mating with her, tending to her, or protecting her.

This behavioral structure involves a singular "queen" whose only or primary purpose is to [[MookMaker lay eggs]]. The other members of the queen's colony have the purpose of mating with her, tending to her, or protecting her.

Writers of fiction pick up on this and often associate this particular insect with ''literal'' royal queens, or vice versa. She is generally accompanied by a swarm of other insects, generally bee-like, and having hordes of insects at her command, sometimes used as WeaponizedOffspring. She is depicted as [[LargeAndInCharge bigger and more physically powerful]] than her minions. Because she has many minions, she's often a villainess.
