You could probably make a case for E. mniodes but I think that E. horologa fits a bit better.

This isn't Heliothis punctifera. The reniform mark doesn't look quite right for E. horologa. Is it a blackened Hypoperigea tonsa?

yes, quite similar to Sigtning No. 4346628.

Looking again at the reniform mark, I believe it's Condica aroana. Some more of the sightings under H. tonsa may be C. aroana.
