Kiholo, dune area between the Kaupulehu lava flows. Hylaeus anthracinus trapped in a flower of Ipomoea pes-caprae, pohuehue. The bees apparently visited the flowers for pollen and nectar, and were unable to climb up the slippery walls. Alien Ceratina smaragdula bees were also found in some, but they appeared catatonic and weren't trying to get out like the Hylaeus.
