Densar is a poorly attested Bayono–Awbono language[1] spoken in the highlands of Papua Province, Indonesia. Glottolog tentatively groups it with Awbono.[2]

All that is known of Densar is a few dozen words given in Wilbrink (2004).[3] The language had been recorded by Wilbrink during a sago grub festival in Seradela District, Yahukimo Regency in April 2001.[3]
