European honeybees and African honeybees are the same species. There are six different species of mason bee cultivated for agricultural use, and hundreds of wild species. As they are solitary, any hybridization would result in less than 20 hybrid offspring per female, rather than hybridizing an entire hive. In any case, mason bees are solitary, and have no particular reason to be aggressive towards other animals, as they have no hives to protect.
