Otuke (Otuque, Otuqui) is an extinct language of the Macro-Jê family, related to Bororo. Otuke territory included what is now the Otuquis National Park and Integrated Management Natural Area in eastern Bolivia. It is only known from a wordlist recorded in 1831. The Kovareka (Covareca) and Kuruminaka (Curuminaca) languages, both extinct and poorly known, were close to Otuke, and have sometimes been considered dialects.
