Explanation:
Wybrnąłbym z tego w taki mniej więcej sposób.

Catocala pacta belongs to the rarest and strongly endangered Noctuidae species in Poland. In the past century the considerable shrinkage of the range of this species was observed. It now occurs at three isolated localities in north-eastern Poland: Biebrza Marshes, Augustów Forest and Białowieża Forest.
