Limilngan-Wulna is a small, now-extinct family of two closely related Aboriginal languages, Limilngan and Wulna, once spoken in the Adelaide River and Mary River areas near Darwin in Australia's Northern Territory. Both languages are classified outside the large Pama-Nyungan family. Wulna is known mainly from recordings made in 1980 and 1981 of its last speaker, Jack Wandi, and Limilngan is likewise believed extinct, so the grouping rests on a tentative reconstruction from sparse documentation rather than a large surviving corpus.
