Katembri–Taruma is a language family proposed by Kaufman (1990)[1] that links two extinct or critically endangered languages of South America:

  • Katembrí, also known as Mirandela of Bahia State, Brazil,[2] and
  • Taruma, also known as Taruamá of Brazil and Guyana.

The proposal is not repeated in Campbell (2012).[3]
