Gomphonema utae es una diatomea pennada de agua dulce de la familia Gomphonemataceae con una frústula asimétrica y claviforme característica que se estrecha hacia el polo basal donde se fija mediante una almohadilla o pedúnculo de mucílago. Se encuentra en comunidades epilíticas y epifíticas de arroyos y lagos en regiones templadas. La especie contribuye a la formación de biopelículas y sirve como bioindicador de la calidad del agua.
