Hoani Te Puna i Rangiriri Taipua (1839 or 1840 – 29/30 September 1896) was a 19th-century Māori member of the New Zealand House of Representatives.
He was born at Rangiuru Pa, Ōtaki to his parents Te Puna I Rangiriri and Te Ria Haukoraki. Both his parents were also a part of the Ngāti Raukawa migration to Ōtaki from Maungatautari. He is of Ngati Pare descent, and is also kin to Ngati Huia and Ngāti Toa. He was born of a very high chiefly status.[1]
He represented the Western Maori electorate from the 1886 by-election after the death of Te Puke Te Ao to 1893 when he retired.[2]
He was married to Hiria Te Mahauariki a.k.a. Amokura, whom he had numerous children with. Today his descendants still live in the Ōtaki area.[1]
