Katerynopil Raion (Ukrainian: Катеринопільський район) was a raion (district) of Cherkasy Oblast in central Ukraine. Its administrative center was located at the urban-type settlement of Katerynopil. The raion covered an area of 672.2 square kilometres (259.5 sq mi).[1] The raion was abolished on 18 July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Cherkasy Oblast to four. The area of Chornobai Raion was merged into Zvenyhorodka Raion.[2][3] The last estimate of the raion population was 23,093 (2020 est.)[4]

- Mokra Kalyhirka rural hromada with the administration in the selo of Mokra Kalyhirka;
- Yerky settlement hromada with the administration in the urban-type settlement of Yerky.
