Alophe metios was an earlycercopithecoid monkey that lived in Kenya about 22 million years ago. It is known from jaw fragments and teeth. Although it was more closely related to moderncercopithecids (Old World monkeys) than to apes, it had not evolved some features shared bycrown cercopithecids and their nearest relatives, such asbilophodont molars.[1]

The monkey was originally namedAlophia metios, but the genusAlophia was already taken by a moth, prompting the new nameAlophe.[2]
