PostEurop - the association of public European postal operators - has declared the common theme of the EUROPA stamp for this year to be Aquatic Fauna and Flora.
Life under the surface is not only made up of plants and fish, but also includes amphibians, reptiles and a huge number of invertebrates. However, only a few species can be displayed on the small area of the stamp. Among the fish, the authors chose pike - the queen of Czech ponds and slow-flowing waters. They added a beautifully colored perch, a frequent prey of pike. Among the amphibians, they caught a large newt, and among the crustaceans, a mud crab. From the class of bivalves, a typical representative of Czech ponds – the pond clam and the flat snail. And finally, a representative of water beetles - the scalloped diver. The flora is represented by the decoration of Czech ponds, white water lilies
accompanied by water grass - stiltgrass
