Samina Valley - Fauna
We are expanding our range of self-adhesive de- finitive stamps with four motifs from the world of animals in Liechtenstein's Samina Valley. The unspoilt, wild-romantic nature of this popular Alpine region provides an ideal habitat for the "Alpine Salamander" (face value: CHF 0.90). The shiny black amphibian gives birth to live young and is therefore not depen- dent on spawning waters. The "Alpine Silver Ant" (face value: CHF 1.10) is now only found locally in the Eastern Alps. As a threatened species, the Formica selysi (lat.) ranks high in the Red Lists of the region.
The "Beetle" (Ceruchus chrysomelinus) (face value: CHF 1.80) is the only representative of its species in Central Europe. The males and females of these bee- tles differ in the width of their heads and the size of their mandibles. The "Snail" (Chilostoma) (face value:
CHF 2.30) is the fourth animal in the bunch. It has a flat, round shell with more and more coils as it ages. The design of the new definitive stamps with illus-trations, sketches and old handwriting is reminiscent of textbooks from days gone by. Each stamp depicts different details and stages of development of the respective animal.
