The Kwomtari languages, also known by the more recent name Senu River languages, are a small family spoken in the Senu River watershed of Papua New Guinea. The family is built around the closely related Kwomtari and Nai languages, together with several more distantly related languages, and comprises roughly six documented languages in total. Glottolog treats Kwomtari as one of the world's primary language families rather than as part of any larger established grouping, and a 2020 classification by Usher organizes its languages into three branches, Kwomtari-Nai, Guriaso-Yale, and Busa (Odiai), together sometimes called the Kwomtari-Busa family.
