Podosphaera fusca is a fungus that parasitically infects plants (a phytopathogen). It is one cause of powdery mildew in melons and gourds.^[1]

Some sources suggest that P. fusca should be considered synonymous with P. xanthii,^[1] while others maintain they are separate species in the subsection Magnicellulata of the section Sphaerotheca of the genus Podosphaera, as of 2011, based on the size of , and on the thin-walled portion of the asci (oculus).^[2]
