1961 B. Essai Papua & New Guinea 31 Papuo-Melanesians are not of a single race and differ widely among themselves in such physical characteristics as colour of skin, texture of hair, and features. As a whole they are identified by their language, which is a fusion of the Papuan and Austronesian tongues.
