Sorry I wasn't clear. What I mean is that, per Wikipedia, citing Killian 2008: [xii] and [kqz] "are often treated as different languages (called South Khoekhoe when taken together), but they do not correspond to any actual dialect distinctions, and speakers may use "Korana" and "Griqua" interchangeably. Both names are also used more broadly, for example for the Griqua people. There exist (or existed) several dialects of Khoemana, but the details are unknown."

Dear Antoine,
Korana [kqz] is in the Ethnologue (https://www.ethnologue.com/language/kqz), so it is not missing.
Best wishes,

Dear Chuck,
Sorry I wasn't clear. What I mean is that, per Wikipedia, citing Killian 2008: [xii] and [kqz] "are often treated as different languages (called South Khoekhoe when taken together), but they do not correspond to any actual dialect distinctions, and speakers may use "Korana" and "Griqua" interchangeably. Both names are also used more broadly, for example for the Griqua people. There exist (or existed) several dialects of Khoemana, but the details are unknown."
So should it be mentioned in "Other comments"?
Antoine,
Yes, I will enter a comment in the "Other Comments" section as you suggest.
Chuck
