Afrobeata is a genus of jumping spiders that was first described by Lodovico di Caporiacco in 1941. As of August 2022[update] it contains only three species, found only in Tanzania, Ethiopia, and on Socotra: A. firma, A. latithorax, and A. magnifica. The name is derived from "Africa" and the genus Beata.
