Group mind (science fiction) - eNotes.com Reference
This article separates hive- and nonhive-groupminds and presents long lists of science-fictional depictions of each.

Aim of the Alternate Minds Project

...to explore science fictional permutations of the concept of mind (and related concepts such as intelligence, perception, selfhood). By entertaining speculative scenarios wherein the target concepts are bent almost beyond recognition, we gain insights into the nature of mind and catch glimpses of new possibilities. Initial investigations will be clustered around seven key themes: Virtual Minds, Infinite Minds, Group Minds, Time-traveling Minds, Hyper-spatial Minds, Quantum Minds, and Anti-Minds.
