Comment
Comments: 
Listed in classifications by Wurm (1972) and O'Grady et al. (1966) but not by Wurm (1994). No other information appears to be available. Based on the information available, Mailnga is unlikely to be a language name. Accordingly it is not included as a language heading in the Thesaurus.

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).
