Binary ferromagnetic Mn(3-delta)Ga (1.2<3-delta< or =1.5) crystalline thin films have been epitaxially grown on wurtzite GaN(0001) surfaces using rf N-plasma molecular beam epitaxy. The film structure is face-centered tetragonal with CuAu type-I (L1(0)) ordering with (111) orientation. The in-plane epitaxial relationship to GaN is nearly ideal with [110](MnGa) parallel[1100](GaN) and [112](MnGa) parallel[1120](GaN). We observe magnetic anisotropy along both the in-plane and out-of-plane directions. The magnetic moments are found to depend on the Mn/(Mn+Ga) flux ratio and can be controlled by observation of the surface reconstruction during growth, which varies from 1x1 to 2x2 with increasing Mn stoichiometry.
