Coverage and sources
This growing directory is not a certified census of every settlement. It includes neighbourhoods within towns, and some historical locality names. Repeated names are qualified where needed; a related article may cover a landmark or journey rather than the whole community. County assignments are checked separately from administrative regions.
Reviewed 10 November 2026 using the GLSC county overview, GECOM locality and constituency labels, National Toshaos Council village directory and GLSC road-place gazetteer. These sources describe locations; historical records are not current population counts.
River-area checks include Ministry of Agriculture community records, DPI’s Kaitapin and Parapi location statement, and the official Ituni Town Site description. Parapee is also written Parapi; Weruni is also written Wiruni.
