A new philatelic release on the theme of "Fauna," titled "Fish Species," featuring four postage stamps and a first-day cover, will be issued on Friday by Romfilatelia and the Romanian Post.
According to a press release sent to AGERPRES by Romfilatelia on Wednesday, the Perch (Perca fluviatilis) is featured on the stamp with a face value of 5 RON, the pumpkinseed Lepomis gibbosus , also known as the queen of the pond or sorete, appears on the 6.50 RON stamp, the Grayling (Thymallus thymallus) is depicted on the 8 RON stamp, and the sculpin-perch, asprete, or Romanian darter (Romanichthys valsanicola) appears on the 14 RON stamp.
The first-day cover features an underwater scene showcasing various freshwater fish species, set against a backdrop of water and plants that provides a defining image for the philatelic issue, the source noted.
The issue will be available from Friday at Romfilatelia stores in Bucharest, Bacau, Brasov, Cluj-Napoca, Iasi, Timisoara, and online.
