Aulagromyza cornigera is a species of leaf-mining fly in the family Agromyzidae.

Mines potentially from this species have also been found on Triosteum perfoliatum.

The species is native to Europe, being found as far north as Norway and as far east as the Volga District of Russia. It is also found in the United States and southern Canada.
