Langor ( Marshallese Ḷōñar , lˠʌŋɑrˠ ) is an inhabited motu in the northeast of the Arno Atoll of the Pacific republic of the Marshall Islands .

geography

Langor forms the extreme northeastern tip of the atoll in the traditional area of Rearḷapḷap (Baranailïngïn - Ṃalel) . The island lies at an almost right-angled north corner of the atoll and extends along the north-east edge to the south-east to Northeast Point . There the atoll turns abruptly to the southwest, so that again an almost right-angled point emerges. The settlement of the same name is located on this wider end of the island. The reef edge stretches from there very narrowly further to the southwest and the island is almost immediately adjacent to the island of Aneraen .
