Comment
Comments: 
This is treated as a dialect of Biri E56 by Terrill (1988). Documentation on Biri E56 may be relevant. Garaynbal is a Biri dialect from Central Queensland (Terrill, 1998:83 and Breen 2009:231). Other dialects of the Biri language include Biri E56, Yangga E52, Yilba E55, Miyan E50, Wirri E57, Gabulbarra E45, Baradha E48, Baranha E53, Yambina E51, Yetimarala E63, Gangulu E40 and the Brown River language (Breen, 2009).

Location information: 
Breen concludes that the location of Karingbal (E38) given by Tindale (1974:174) is incorrect; he places it in the western part of McIntosh's 'Kaangooloo' territory, centering on Jellinbah, which is equivalent of the northern and eastern part of Tindale's Kanolu (E64) territory (2009:231)
