Colasposoma sellatum is a species of leaf beetle from Australia and Papua New Guinea, described by Joseph Sugar Baly in 1878. In Australia, it is found around Darwin in the Northern Territory, in the north-east of Queensland and on the Torres Strait Islands. It is the only member of the genus Colasposoma found in Australia, where it is known as a pest of sweet potatoes.[1]

The legs are black with metallic reflections. The basalmost segment of each antennae is usually black, or sometimes reddish-brown; the next five segments are reddish-brown and the last five are black.[1]
