Comment
Comments: 

This name appears in Berndt (1959) as well as Capell (1963) and Oates and Oates (1970) but there appears to be no linguistic information available on this language. Tindale lists Man-gula (A23) as an alternative name for Mandjindja A33 and similarly Oates and Oates (1970:79) say it is possibly part of Mandjindja.
