Donald Laycock (1973) classified them as part of a Walio–Papi, a.k.a. Leonhard Schultze, branch of his Sepik–Ramu proposal. Malcolm Ross (2005) breaks up Walio–Papi, and suggests that the Papi languages may instead be part of the Sepik Hill branch of the (now Sepik) family. Glottolog does not find the evidence of a Papi family to be convincing. Foley (2018) and Usher (2020) retain them in Leonhard Schultze.[1]
