Name of issue: Chélicérates (Chelicerata)
Number of arachnid related stamps in issue: 9/10
The one stamp that is not an arachnid is a horseshoe crab.
I am not sure if this series is valid or not. It looks fake to me. The perforation is very cheap. Also, the official language of Benin is French, the name of the series and the country is in French but the texts about Brachypelma smithi and Pandinus imperator are in English, which is weird.
