The Lower Murray languages form a branch of the Pama–Nyungan family. They are:
- Ngarinyeri (Yaralde, Yaraldi, Ngarrindjeri, Ramindjeri)
- Ngayawung (Ngayawang) (†)
- Yuyu (Ngintait, Ngarkat) (†)
- Keramin (†)
- Yitha-Yitha moribund
Dixon treats these as isolates, either because they are not close or are too poorly attested to demonstrate they are close. Bowern (2011) adds Peramangk.
