Remote Oceanic languages
A family of some 200 Remote Oceanic languages has traditionally been posited as a subgroup of the Central-Eastern Oceanic languages. However, it was abandoned by Lynch, Ross, & Crowley in 2002, as no defining features of the family could be found.
Its components were,
- Central Pacific languages
- Eastern Outer Islands languages
- Loyalty Islands languages
- Micronesian languages
- New Caledonian languages
- North and Central Vanuatu languages
