Little is known about the manufacture of tapa in the Santa Cruz group. Tapa was made on Ndende Island and does not seem to have been documented for the other islands, although it is possible that some of the collected pieces and photographs recorded as beig from Santa Cruz may in fact be from the outer islands. Neich and Pendergrast, 'Pacific Tapa', 1997.
