Comment
Comments: 
Austin (1992, Warriyangga) says that Malygaru could be a sub-group of Warriyangga W22, however it is not clear whether he means a dialect or a people name. Tindale (1974) treats it as a separate group.

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).
