The family Neanuridae contains pudgy short-legged springtails of the order Poduromorpha. It was established by Carl Börner in 1901.[1]

There are six subfamilies currently recognized:

Red Poduromorph Springtails (subfamily Neanurinae) found crawling, rather than jumping, on damp garden soil in Dhaka, Bangladesh.

The peculiar genus Pseudoxenylla is of uncertain relationships and hence not assigned to a subfamily yet.
