Marine fauna Mackerel - Scomber scombrus

From the same series on marine fauna, this stamp illustrates the Mackerel, a pelagic fish recognizable by its blue-green back striped with black bands. Bensalah Abdel Hakim's work emphasizes the hydrodynamic silhouette of this great swimmer. Mackerel occupies a strategic place in the Tunisian fishing economy, both for direct consumption and for the canning industry. This stamp highlights the resources of the high seas and the dynamism of the industrial fishing sector in Tunisia.
