An annotated list is presented of the effectively published names of the monoecious Ficus taxa endemic to the Southwest Pacific islands of New Caledonia and Vanuatu, along with the types of the 62 that are validly published as of 1 January 2003. Twentyone lectotypes and one epitype are designated in order to fix the application of names at the ranks of species and variety.
