非洲古猿（Afropithecus）是生活在中新世早期至中期非洲及沙地阿拉伯已灭绝的灵长目。

非洲古猿的牙齿有一层厚的珐瑯质，估计牠是吃坚果及其他有硬壳的食物。这种新颖的形态能帮助牠们在欧亚大陆的森林中立足，能吃原康修尔猿及其他早期的猿吃不到的食物。

非洲古猿有一些地方像日猿、肯尼亚古猿及大型的人猿总科。

Afropithecus turkanensis is a Miocene hominoid which was excavated from a small site near Lake Turkana called Kalodirr in northern Kenya in 1986 and was named by Richard Leakey and Meave Leakey. The estimated age of Afropithecus is between 16 and 18 million years old, which was determined with radiometric dating techniques and the geological studies conducted by Broschetto and Brown from the University of Utah. In total there are 46 recovered specimens from Kalodirr relating to Afropithecus consisting of cranial, mandible, dentition and post-cranial remains. The type specimen of Afropithecus turkanensis is KNM-WK 16999.
