I'm not 100% sure but "Black Matpe is a type of bean which appears to be one of the many names of the Urad (bean, urad dal, urd bean, urd, urid, black matpe bean, black gram, black lentil) so I'm guessing its flour made from it.

Dosa does have Urad dal (rice and skinless urad dal), so that makes sense Steven. It is probably it's name in one of the South Indian languages as Dosa originates from South India.
