The Temotu languages, named after Temotu Province of the Solomon Islands, are a branch of Oceanic languages proposed in Ross & Næss 2007 for the Reefs – Santa Cruz languages. These languages had previously been considered Papuan, but Ross & Næss established that the closest relatives were the Utupua–Vanikoro languages, previously thought to be Central–Eastern Oceanic.[1]
- Reef Islands – Santa Cruz
- Utupua–Vanikoro (may be two independent branches)
Ethnologue does not accept the Vanikoro node.
