Te Heruika I - of the Ngati Whare section of Ngati Mahanga

This post provides a correction to a table of whakapapa published by Apirana Ngata in Nga Moteatea (1st ed.) In particular, the table that accompanies "55. He Waiata aroha mo Tikaokao" (p.180) - the lineage of Te Heruika, the son of Karohia of Ngati Whare [descendants of Wharetipeti] and Mapihi of Ngati Whawahakia. 

Ngata's table records Te Heruika as a son of Wharetipeti.  Although Wharetipeti was his tupuna, he was not his Father. 

The parts of the table that are correct, in that they align with the version of the Whanau are :

1. Pumipi Tonga and others (me etehi atu) were the children of Tiatia Te Heruika. 
2. Paroto Wanihi and Piniha Wanihi were the sons of Marepo. (There were also two daughters, Taemaringi Waikaukau Tai Rakena (Mrs) and Te Raa Ngaruhe (Mrs).
3. Heruika II had two daughters Tiatia and Marepo. He also had two sons, Wharepuhi Taiki te Heruika and Moumou te Heruika.

Corrections:

1. Heruika II did not marry Taokeka.  Taokeka was his Mother! He married Waikaukau, daughter of Paati and Ripeti.
2. Heruika I married Taokeka, who was Ngati Waiora from Mokau.
3. Heruika I was the son of Karohia and Te Mapihi (as recorded above)

Note: Correct names except in the wrong place suggest perhaps transcription or typesetting errors.  

The siblings of Taokeka - wife of Te Heruika

The wife of Wharetipeti, Ngauru (in full Ngauruwahanui) could possibly be from Mokau as suggested here by Ngata; though this is more likely to be a description that fits Taokeka more accurately.  According to Te Wharepuhi alias. Taiki Te Heruika; Taokeka was from Mokau; and that her brother Herewini returned to live in Mokau after his brother in law, Te Heruika died.  This suggests that for a time, Herewini lived in the area with his sister and her husband.  He goes on to say, that Taokeka lived at Te Makaka; which is in the vicinity of Rahinui, in a large kainga known as Kaoroa.
