Nayini (Na'ini), or Biyabanak, is one of the Central Iranian varieties of Iran, one of five listed in Ethnologue that together have 35,000 speakers. Anarak dialect is divergent.
Ethnologue provisionally lists Khuri as a dialect. However, that appears to belong to a different branch of Central Iranian.
