The Southwestern Paman languages are a family of the Paman languages spoken on the western part of the Cape York Peninsula of Queensland, Australia.
Alpher (1972) accepts Southwestern Pama as a valid node; the classification below is his. R. M. W. Dixon, on the other hand, only accepts a connections between pairs of languages: Yir, as two dialects of a single language, and Koko Bera with Kok Thawa.
Bowern (2011) also lists the extinct Kokiny and Kok-Papángk.
