thumb|Artist's interpretation of a super-Neptune Super-Neptunes, also known as a sub-Saturns, are a rare population of exoplanets that have properties between that of Neptune and Saturn (, , 0.687-1.64 g/cm3). According to the core-accretion model of planet formation, most planets that reach a threshold are expected to rapidly expand to gas giant sizes (≥) in a mechanism known as runaway gas accretion. Despite this, Super-Neptunes sit between this bimodal distribution of sub-Neptunes and gas giants, failing to either begin or fully complete runaway accretion.

OGLE-TR-211b is a transiting planet in Carina constellation. Its radius is about 36% more than Jupiter and has mass 3% more than Jupiter, which is considered an “inflated Hot Jupiter”. The planet takes 3.7 days at about the same distance as 51 Pegasi b orbits around 51 Pegasi.

WASP-16b is an extrasolar planet that travels around its star, WASP-16, every 3.12 days. Likely a hot Jupiter. Its mass is near .855 of Jupiter, the radius is 1.008 of Jupiter. It was discovered in 2009 by a team led by T.A. Lister as part of the Wide Angle Search for Planets project. ==Characteriscics== In 2012, it was found from the Rossiter–McLaughlin effect that WASP-16b orbits its slow-rotating and likely old parent star WASP-16 in a prograde direction, with the star's rotational axis inclined to the planetary orbit by .

OGLE-2005-BLG-071Lb is a planet discovered by the Optical Gravitational Lensing Experiment (OGLE) and others in 2005, using gravitational microlensing. According to the best fit model, it has about 3.5 times the mass of Jupiter and a projected separation of 3.6 astronomical units from the star. This would result in an effective temperature around 50 K, similar to that of Neptune. However, an alternative model which gives a slightly lower mass of 3.3 times that of Jupiter and a projected separation of 2.1 AU is only slightly less likely. It may be the most massive planet currently known around

HAT-P-32b is a planet orbiting the G-type or F-type star HAT-P-32, which is approximately 950 light years away from Earth. HAT-P-32b was first recognized as a possible planet by the planet-searching HATNet Project in 2004, although difficulties in measuring its radial velocity prevented astronomers from verifying the planet until after three years of observation. The Blendanal program helped to rule out most of the alternatives that could explain what HAT-P-32b was, leading astronomers to determine that HAT-P-32b was most likely a planet. The discovery of HAT-P-32b and of HAT-P-33b was submitt
