Date of issue: 2019
Name of issue: Spiders
Number of arachnid related stamps in issue: 5/5Stamps are like wine, there are some good years and some very bad year. 2019 was an abysmal one with all those horrible picture stamps, almost seems like several countries all conspired to insult philately! See Djibouti, Guinea, Mozambique, Niger, Togo if you do not mind your eyes bleeding a little bit!
The picture of the Loxosceles laeta is clearly not a Loxosceles species, looks more like a Latrodectus species.
