Maybe Erebidae > subfamily Calpinae instead?

Gorgone could be a match:

This individual moth was IDed by two different people as different species:

Obroatis sp. is also similar. Posted 5 months ago

  I think it might be Gorgone fellearis, it's seen several times in this location and it has the same pattern near the center of the moth, which is missing for Gorgone augusta.
