Colasposoma aeneoviolaceum elisabethae is a subspecies of Colasposoma aeneoviolaceum, a species of leaf beetle of the Democratic Republic of the Congo.[2]

Compared to the nominal form, the adults differ in their bronze colouring, have a cupreous or tanned underside, and have less abundant elytral punctuation. The subspecies was described from Élisabethville (now Lubumbashi), in the south of Katanga.[1]
