Katembri–Taruma is a language family proposed by Kaufman (1990) that links two extinct or critically endangered languages of South America, Katembrí also known as Mirandela of Bahia State, Brazil[1], and Taruma also known as Taruamá of Brazil and Guyana. The proposal is not repeated in Campbell & Grondona (2012).
