Dysodiopsis tagetoides, commonly known as false dogfennel, is a species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae. It is native to the United States, where it is restricted to Oklahoma and Texas. It is found in areas of calcareous soil.

Dysodiopsis is a monotypic genus, and therefore contains no other species.
