The Oʻahu ʻakepa (Loxops wolstenholmei) is an extinct species of ʻakepa that was endemic to the island of Oahu. It was commonly sighted throughout the 19th century. This brick red Hawaiian honeycreeper was found in the mountain peaks in densely forested areas. The females were mostly gray with a tinge of green. The birds had a slight crossbill just like the other Loxops species. Order: Passeriformes, Family: Fringillidae, Species: Loxops wolstenholmei Rothschild, 1895
