Acroteriobatus is a genus of fish in the Rhinobatidae family. Although its constituent species were previously assigned to Rhinobatos, recent authors treat it as distinct.

They are found near the shore off southern Africa and in the northwestern Indian Ocean. They are brownish above, often with a spotted pattern, and reach up to 60–140 cm (2.0–4.6 ft) depending on the exact species.
