The only species in hawaii are invasives, which luckily fly all year round and are easy to find. My advice would be to flip rocks for colonies and look on the sidewalk for queens that just flew. I also remember someone on the forum a few years back saying to check tennis courts especially at night for queens attracted to the lights.
