<p>List of the chironomid specimens and the environmental samples. Taxa names for the insects were assigned by anatomical/morphological assessment supported by BLAST alignment of the sequenced cytochrome oxidase gene upon comparison with GenBank database (identification accepted upon observing scores of DNA sequence identity with named records higher than 99%). Top part: insects, bottom part: environment samples. SLPF is a sample from Prato Fiorito (side glacier of the Agola site).</p>
