Hey there Fcamdog, since you're in Hawaii, have you run into these guys:
http://www.nhm.ac.uk/hosted_sites/tcp/Escolopes.html
there's a number of people over on the ceph list (including me) looking for them, but no one can find a source. I've tried talking to collectors there and not heard word one back. would a fishing lisence let you collect these guys and overnight them back here to the states?

Movement...and lots of practice looking for them. He was one of about 4 I tried to catch early last evening.
