The empty exuvia of these seem to stay "good" for a long time - so the moth would/could have been long gone. The neat half suggests that maybe something "bad" happened to it, possibly even before hatching? Generally you'll find the whole exuvia, only a bit cracked open at the side where the moth emerged.
