Malayic Dayak (Dayak Kemelayuan) is a dialect chain of Malayic spoken in West Kalimantan (North Kayong, Ketapang, Kapuas Hulu, Melawi) and the western part of Central Kalimantan (Lamandau, Sukamara, West Kotawaringin, Seruyan, East Kotawaringin).

Wurm and Hattori (1981) list these dialects as Delang (200,000 speakers), Kayong (100,000 speakers), Banana’ (100,000 speakers), Bamayo, Tapitn (300 speakers), Mentebah-Suruk (20,000 speakers), Semitau (10,000 speakers), Suhaid (10,000 speakers), and additionally Arut, Lamandau, Sukamara, Riam (Nibung Terjung), Belantikan (Sungkup), Tamuan, Tomun, Pangin, Sekakai, and Silat. These dialects should not be confused with the Ibanic branch or other Malayic languages spoken by Dayaks.
