Issued in 1963, this 0.08 Israeli postage stamp beautifully depicts the Oleander Hawk Moth (Daphnis nerii), one of the most striking species found in the region. The moth is rendered in vivid shades of green and brown against a warm ochre background, showcasing its distinctive leaf-like wing pattern. Designed to highlight Israel’s native fauna, this stamp belongs to the “Insects of Israel” definitive series, which celebrated the country’s natural biodiversity. A fine example of early Israeli philatelic artistry, it remains a prized collectible for nature and wildlife stamp enthusiasts.
