英文摘要	We evaluated the diversity and ecological network structure of insects associated with Cylindropuntia imbricata, a common cactus distributed throughout the Mexican high plateau (southern Chihuahuan desert). We performed a field assay where we randomly selected adult individuals of C. imbricata to analyze the effect of induced water stress on cacti. Our data revealed that insect diversity was higher as soil moisture increased; however, time of day highly influenced species composition. The results exhibited that ecological networks do not support stable interactions when cacti were watered. Probably, watering destabilized the nested pattern of the networks because is in attractive but short-lived resource for insects (hot moments). Time-subnetworks showed that watered cacti were nested only during the first hours of the day. Presumably, insect species responded to hot moments determined by induced soil moisture. The highest insect species composition and species interactions occurred at noon, demonstrating a threshold to avoid overheating and therefore, a temporal segregation of species during the day. Further research is needed to improve knowledge on environmental determinants such as water, as a critical issue to predict the impacts of climate change on species diversity and their trophic interactions, particularly in deserts where rains are scarce.
