Abstract
Table 1 Percentages of number of bees visiting flowers ( I M i ± I SE i ) of I Opuntia huajuapensis i with model bees of I Apis mellifera and the native bee Lithurgus littoralis i (male and female) and comparing between the three body position treatments of the dummy bee.

We proposed the hypotheses that bees exhibiting a vulnerable body position (such as feeding) would be prone to aggression, and that there are differences between I A. mellifera i , as well as the female and male of native bees I L. littoralis i . Furthermore, the number of I A. mellifera i visitors was also not significant between the three body position treatments (Table 1a) or by the type of bee × body position of dummy bee ( I F i SB 2,174 sb = 1.70; I p i = 0.30).
