Oharimae is one of the named hi'ona or figona of San Cristoval (Makira) in the south-eastern Solomon Islands. In the foundational account of Makiran religion, C. E. Fox and F. H. Drew report that every figona was believed to have a serpent incarnation, and they range these spirit-beings 'from Agunua the creator, worshipped by every one, to Oharimae and others, only known to particular persons.' Oharimae thus represents the localized end of the figona cult: a serpent-spirit venerated privately by particular families or persons rather than by the whole island. Fox and Drew add that almost all such local figona were represented as female snakes, Agunua alone being male, though Oharimae's own sex is not recorded. The passage naming Oharimae was reproduced by Grafton Elliot Smith in The Evolution of the Dragon (1919) as evidence of the serpent form of Melanesian divinities.
