Except for Eligmoderma politum Nonfried, 1895, all known species of Eligmoderma are illustrated, some of them for the first time, with notes on them. Eligmoderma spinicolle Aurivillius, 1924 is revalidated. Although it was not possible to locate the holotype of Eligmoderma ziczac Nonfried, 1895, and we do not know whether the specimen still exists, we identified two specimens that we believe belong to this species, based on the details provided in the original description. Eligmoderma convexicolle Aurivillius, 1924 is synonymized with E. trifasciatum Aurivillius, 1924. Eligmoderma monnei sp. nov. is described from Venezuela.
