The species of Hoplasoma Jacoby, 1884, of the Philippines are revised. Eight species, including five new, are treated: H.bakeri Bezděk, sp. nov. (Sibuyan), H. konstantinovi Bezděk, sp. nov. (Mindoro), H. magellani Bezděk, sp. nov. (Mind-anao, Sulu, Samar, Panaon), H. mcgregori Bezděk, sp. nov. (Negros), Hoplasoma mindanense Medvedev, 2002 (Mindan-ao), H. philippinense Jacoby, 1894 (Luzon), H. picifemora Allard, 1888 (= H. luzonica Medvedev, 2002, syn. nov.)(Luzon) and H. semperi Bezděk, sp. nov.
