Dear participants and authors,
Thank you for your patience.
The articles submitted for publication in the Proceeding of the 16th International Chironomid Symposium Boletim do Museu Municipal do Funchal are now being made available in electronic format.
Due to the delay with the last phase of publication, we are making the articles available online in electronic format as they are sent to us from the Museu Municipal. This allows you, the authors, to cite and divulge your work and update your curriculum vitae. We apologize for the delay, and will continue to post articles on the website as soon as they are sent to us from the Museu Municipal.
All articles are in PDF format. If you do not have Adobe acrobat reader software click on this link and download it for free at www.adobe.com
The Museu Municipal has informed us that the proceedings will go to press very soon. Copies of the symposium proceedings will be sent to all participants as soon as possible.
