Location information: 
Breen's informant gives three different locations: 1. between Innamincka and Nappa Merrie; 2. there was a boundary between Parlpamaramardra and Parlpakurnu at Baryulah; 3. Lake Pure and Tookabarnoo Waterhole were in Parlpamardramardra country, the former is north of Nappa Merrie and well inside Ngurawola country as delineated by Tindale, and the latter is on the Wilson River south of Baryulah and seems more likely to be in Wangkumara country (Breen 2004:2).

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).
