Yumana (Jumana, Xomana, Ximana) is an extinct, poorly attested, and unclassified Arawakan language. Kaufman (1994) placed it in his Río Negro branch, but this is not followed in Aikhenvald (1999). It is attested only in a wordlist from Carl Friedrich Philipp von Martius and Johann Baptist von Spix in 1867.
