Gomphonema utae is a freshwater pennate diatom in the family Gomphonemataceae with a characteristic asymmetric, clavate frustule that tapers toward the foot-pole where it attaches via a mucilage pad or stalk. It is found in epilithic and epiphytic communities in streams and lakes across temperate regions. The species contributes to biofilm formation and serves as a bioindicator of water quality.
