Dhudhuroa is an extinct Australian Aboriginal language of north-eastern Victoria. As it is no longer spoken, Dhudhuroa is primarily known today from written material collected by R. H. Mathews from Neddy Wheeler. It has gone by numerous names, including Yaitmathang, Balangamida, Theddoramittung, Tharamirttong, Theddora, Jandangara, and Gundanora.
