Neelipleona is a name given to some hexapods of the subclass Collembola (springtails).

While their taxonomic rank remains broadly settled as family Neelidae, Neelipleona has been described at order or suborder rank.

[1] Many authors consider the "Neelipleona" Symphypleona of the superfamily Sminthuroidea, family Neelidae.

[2] However, in other accounts, Neelipleona are either a distinct order from the three less controversial Springtail orders (Entomobryomorpha, Poduromorpha and Symphypleona)[3][4] or a distinct suborder of Symphypleona,[5][6] or placed in the Entomobryomorpha.
