Title

Organisms of the Mediterranean Marine Environment, Thematic Issue

Description

The marine environment of the Mediterranean supports some 12,000 species of fauna and flora as well as other living
organisms. The sea anemone depicted on the 43c stamp belongs to the Anthozoa class and is a water dwelling predator animal named after a terrestrial flower.

The dividing line between animal and plant is blurred and sea anemones are found to be genetically part plant part animal. They live in isolation in varying marine environments including sand and rock. They feed by catching prey such as fish.
