This list is based on the two lists published in Samarin 1967, and was used to carry out a lexicostatistic subgrouping of the languages of the Solomon islands. The compilers note that they replaced forty items which were found unsuitable for their comparison with alternative concepts. In the list, those concepts which, according to the compilers, stem from Samarin 1967 100 are marked with one asterisk, those items which stem from Samarin 1967 218 are marked with two asterisks, and the 40 additional items are left unmarked. This list is a subset of a larger Tryon 1983 324 that was collected and published along with the source and used for broader investigations, including the determination of regular sound correspondences.
