Dhungaloo (Dungaloo) is an extinct Australian Aboriginal language of Queensland. Bowern suggests that it may have been a Maric language. However, AIATSIS has no listing for the name, listing a Dungaloo wordlist under Taribelang (Gureng-Gureng). Glottolog does the same, treating it as a dialect of Gureng Gureng.
