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

• Katembri–Taruma
  • Katembrí, a.k.a. Mirandela of Bahia State, Brazil
  • Taruma, a.k.a. Taruamá of Brazil and Guyana

The proposal is not repeated in Campbell (2012).
