Gonada flavidorsis is a moth in the family Depressariidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1930. It is found in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.[1]

The wingspan is about 26 mm. The forewings are light violet pink with the costal edge white and with a very obscure median streak of violet-whitish irroration (sprinkles) from about one-fourth to the apex, posteriorly more faintly expanded towards the costa. There is a suffused orange-yellow dorsal streak from near the base, posteriorly attenuated on the dorsal edge to the tornus. The hindwings are pale orange-pinkish.[2]
