Mepuri is an extinct Arawakan language of Brazil that was spoken around the confluence of the Rio Negro and Japurá River, mainly on the Marié River and Curicuriari River.[1][2] A word list was collected by Johann Natterer in 1831.[1]
Mepuri is grouped as a member of the Japurá-Colômbia branch by Ramirez and França (2019).[3]
