Retroflex implosives have not been confirmed to exist in any language, though one has been claimed for Ngad'a, an Austronesian language spoken in Flores.

The expected symbol for this, ᶑ (that is, a d with both the tail for retroflex and the hook top for implosive), is not "explicitly recognized" by the IPA, but it is supported in the Unicode Phonetic Extensions Supplement.
