Furthermore, the Torres Strait Islanders, who are of a slightly different race and culture, and the Oceanian Islanders who previously arrived (excluding the Maori of New Zealand), are also lumped together as Australian Aboriginals in administrative and daily life terms.

*Some of the terminology explanations that mention "Aborigine" are listed below.
