Dodia kononenkoi is a moth in the family Erebidae. It was described in 1984 by Yuri A. Tshistjakov and J. Donald Lafontaine. It lives in the Russian Far East (Transbaikalia, Sikhote-Alin, Magadan) and in Canada (Yukon). The forewings are evenly colored and pale grey, giving a translucent look. Dodia transbaikalensis used to be considered a subspecies of D. kononenkoi, but is now usually treated as a separate species.
