Saw a print image
of Homorthodes furfurata that looked similar, but we can't find anything online.

 
Noctuoidea of Newfoundland
Thanks for the feedback. I believe that Homorthodes furfurata is a Noctuidae in the Subfamily Hadeninae. The Noctuoidea of Newfoundland list on the Canadian Biodiversity Information Facility web site does not list any known individuals of this genus in Newfoundland. That doesn't mean it's not here but it isn't listed.
