The Dodd nunatak is a nunatak in East Antarctic Victoria Land . In the northwest section of the Emlen Peaks in the Usarp Mountains, it rises 4 km west of Mount Cox .

The United States Geological Survey mapped it using its own surveys and aerial photographs of the United States Navy from 1960 to 1963.
