nguchul PARASTACIDAE, "crayfish." This locality
does not appear to be within me known present-day
distribution of fresh water crayfishes. [Australia:
Queensland; Port Mackay and its neighbors (probably
= Juipera Aboriginal tribe of Tindale, 1974:171
(149°5'E x 21°15'S))] Bridgeman, in Curr, 1887
(III):50, Sta. 147.
ngumat PARASTACIDAE.
ingamells, 1955:51.
[Australia: Tasmania]
ninge-ninge PARASTACIDAE, "crayfish," probably
= Euastacus sp. [Australia: New South Wales; Tweed
River and Point Dangar (probably = Minjungbal
Aboriginal tribe of Tindale, 1974:196 (153°25'Ex 28°-
15'S))] Braye and Fowler, in Curr, 1887(III):246, Sta.
173.
ninyouen PARASTACIDAE, "crayfish," probably =
Cherax gladstonensis. [Australia: Queensland; "Dawson
River," "Wokka, Wogga, or Woga dialects,"]
Cunningham, in Curr, 1887(111): 106, Sta. 159. The
Dawson River locality and the "Wokka," etc. dialect
designations are a puzzle when I attempt to reconcile
them with Tindale's tribal boundaries. The Wokka
dialect is likely associated with the Wakawaka Aboriginal
tribe of Tindale, 1974:187 (151°45'E x 25°50'S)
on the Burnet River, whereas the Dawson River is in
the territory of the Kangulu Aboriginal tribe of
Tindale: 174 (150°15'E x 24°15'S). The problem is
also associated with nenewn, q.v., but the similarity of
the words favors the Wakawaka tribe. See also newnnewn.

nolaka PARASTACIDAE, "lobster," probably =
Cherax davisi. [Australia: Queensland; Weir and
Moonie rivers (Curr, 1887(111):260, implies this locality
is in territory of the Ualarai (Wolleri), but the Station
locality (175) together with the localities of the Weir
and the Moonie rivers points to the Bigambul Aboriginal
tribe of Tindale, 1974:166 (150°10'E x 28°10'S))]
