Similar to Sympistis major but note more black marking of the claviform, orbicular, reniform spots, also the white hindwing with black scales in margin and some veins. I think the white hindwing seems to indicate this is a male example. It looks identical with Jim Troubridge specimen on MPG here http://mothphotographersgroup.msstate.edu/species.php?hodges=10135.6

There is a nearby record, living moth photo, from Culp Valley, Anza-Borrego Desert State Park, in BG here https://bugguide.net/node/view/2145174

Even closer, maybe a mile or two away, at Scissors Crossing, the similar date Tomas Mustelin specimen on BOLD here https://v3.boldsystems.org/index.php/Public_RecordView?processid=RDNM564-05
