Νεάνδρεια, πόλις Τρῳάδος ἐν Ἑλλησπόντῳ, ὡς Χάραξ. ἔν τισι δὲ Λέανδρος γράφεται διὰ τοῦ « λ » κακῶς. λέγεται καὶ Νεάνδρειον οὐδετέρως, ὡς Θεόπομπος. ὁ πολίτης Νεανδρεύς, ὡς Στράβων.

Neandreia: a city in the Troad, on the Hellespont, as per Charax. In some copies, however, Leandros is incorrectly written with λ. It is also called 'Neandreion' in the neuter, as per Theopompos. A citizen is a 'Neandreus', as per Strabo.
