Abstract
Four aggressive responses of workers of the honey bee, Apis mellifera L., shown to an introduced queen have been identified and defined (Yadava 1970). These are threatening, seizing, pulling, and stinging. It has been suggested that these 4 responses possibly represent different levels of motivation (Yadava 1970).
