__NOTOC__
The subfamily Neanurinae contains pudgy short-legged springtails of the order Poduromorpha. It was established by Carl Börner in 1901 – or rather, it is the result of taxa being split out of Börner's family (initially proposed as a subfamily, but this had to be changed when springtails were discovered to be closely related to but not actually insects) whereas the type genus and its closest relatives were retained here.
