Urequena (Uerequena, Arequena, Orelhudos) is currently extinct, and is known only from an undated 19-century manuscript by Austrian naturalist Johann Natterer. Natterer gives the Içá River (or Putumayo River) as the location of the Urequena language.
Terrence Kaufman places it in the proposed Bora–Witoto language family.
