I'm perplexed by the choice to treat Omagua as a dialect of Kokama. It is true that the two languages are closely related, but they are only partly mutually intelligible, and more significantly, it would be just as reasonable to treat Kokama as a dialect of Omagua, as the converse. The more accurate characterization would be to treat both languages as members of a subgroup within Group III (in Rodrigues' classification of the Tupí-Guaraní family). The Michael (to appear) paper that I've added to the bibliography addresses several of these issues. I don't know of any recent works that claim that Omagua is a dialect of Kokama, so my plan is to wait a couple of days, and if no one objects, alter the treatment of Omagua so that is treated as an independent language, and not a dialect of Kokama.
