Gnomonia fructicola is a fungal plant pathogen on strawberries causing leaf spot disease. It can overwinter on leaves and fruits of Fragaria spp. (Rosaceae), occasionally pathogenic on fruits causing strawberry stem-end rot. The causal organism has often been referred to as Gnomonia comari, now considered Gnomoniopsis comari. It occurs in Canada (British Columbia), Europe (Belgium, France) and U.S.A. (MD, NY).{{cite journal |vauthors=Sogonov MV, Castlebury LA, Rossman AY, Mejia LC, White JF |year=2008|title=Leaf-inhabiting genera of the Gnomoniaceae, Diaporthales |journal=Studies in Mycology |volume=62 |pages=1–79 |url=http://www.studiesinmycology.org/content/62/1/1.full |doi=10.3114/sim.2008.62.01|pmid=19287541|pmc=2621335}}
