Dear Bill,
I am not sure why you think Noumea norba is not supposed to be in Indonesia. I note I haven't included a geographic distribution on the Fact Sheet, but just from the messages on the Forum we can see it has a wide distribution in the tropical Pacific and Indian Oceans, so we would expect it to be found in Indonesia. I'll add a note on the Fact Sheet
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
