Katukinan, also called Catuquinan, is a small language family of Brazil consisting of two languages, Katukina-Kanamari and the possibly moribund Katawixi, spoken along rivers such as the Jutai, Jurua and Gregorio in the states of Amazonas and Acre. Some researchers instead treat its varieties as dialects of a single language, Kanamari, with branches distinguished by tribal affiliation.
