Acentropinae is a fairly small subfamily of the lepidopteran family Crambidae, the crambid snout moths. Species of this subfamily are exclusively found in wetlands and aquatic habitats.

Systematics
Anydraula glycerialis
Cataclysta camptozonale
Elophila icciusalis
Hygraula nitens
Nymphula stagnata
Parapoynx stratiotata
Strepsinoma hapilistalis

In modern treatments, the former subfamily Nymphulinae is mostly treated as a tribe within Acentropinae. There are about 730 species in 78 genera. Only 13 species in 6 genera are found in Europe.
