Doina inconspicua is a moth in the Depressariidae family. It was described by Clarke in 1978. It is found in Chile.

The wingspan is 26–30 mm. The forewings are light drab, irrorated with scattered greyish-fuscous scales. At two-fifths, in the cell, is an ill-defined, small fuscous discal spot and there is a similar but larger spot at the end of the cell, while a third similar spot is found on the fold. Between the end of the cell and the termen is a series of three or four small, ill-defined fuscous spots. Along the termen, to the tornus, is a series of seven ill-defined fuscous spots. The hindwings are sordid white, the surface towards the margins irrorated with fuscous scales.
