MushroomsEasiest

Visual clue. Four stamps showing different types of mushrooms growing in a natural setting.

The hook. These represent various wild fungi found in forests, such as porcini, saffron milk caps, and sulfur tufts.

Paintings Featuring FruitModerate

Visual clue. Four classic artwork reproductions that prominently feature fruit—either held by people or arranged in a still life.

The hook. These stamps reproduce famous art pieces by Murillo, Gauguin, Caravaggio, and a Romanian still life, all focusing on fruit.

Here's the trap we set. You might have been tempted to group 'Oranges And Carnations' with the flowers, but it's needed here to complete the set of fruit paintings.

ButterfliesTricky

Visual clue. Four stamps that feature a beautifully illustrated butterfly as the sole main subject without any prominent flowers.

The hook. These represent diverse butterfly species from around the world, like the massive Goliath Birdwing and the vibrant Ulysses butterfly.

Here's the trap we set. The 'Yellow Butterfly On Flower' looks like a perfect fit here, but selecting all five butterflies will give you a 'One away' message!

FlowersHardest

Visual clue. Four stamps showing colorful blooming flowers in their natural state.

The hook. The grouping includes a mix of wild and garden flowers like rhododendrons, pasque flowers, and blue blooms.

Here's the trap we set. This group acts as the home for our tricky overlapping stamp. The yellow brimstone butterfly is just a guest sitting on the required blue flower!
