Kisar, also known as Yotowawa, is a small island in the Southwestern Moluccas in Indonesia, located to the northeast of Timor Island. The island now forms two districts ("North Kisar" and "South Kisar") within the Southwest Islands Regency of Maluku Province. South Kisar District was previously called Kecamatan Pulau Pulau Terselatan and at one time included the larger (but less populated) Roma or Romang Island further north, but this with its own outliers was subsequently split off to form its own district (Kecamatan Kepulauan Roma). The rest of the island forms the North Kisar District (Kecamatan Kisar Utara) within the regency. It is one of the 92 officially listed outlying islands of Indonesia. The principal town is Wonreli, with 6,652 inhabitants at the 2010 Census.[2]
