Comment
Comments: 
Djungurdja is only reported in Oates and Oates (1970:64) and Capell (1963: W15a). The former says that von Brandenstein collected some materials, but Djungurdja is not on von Brandenstein's 1967 maps, which suggest that von Brandenstein concluded it was not a language name.

Speaker numbers were measured differently across the censuses and various other sources listed in AUSTLANG. You are encouraged to refer to the sources.

Speaker numbers for ‘NILS 2004’ and ‘2005 estimate’ come from 'Table F.3: Numbers of speakers of Australian Indigenous languages (various surveys)' in 'Appendix F NILS endangerment and absolute number results' in McConvell, Marmion and McNicol 2005, pages 198-230 (PDF, 2.5MB).
