The symposium provided an opportunity for chironomid researchers to attend sessions where communications of a remarkable scienti¿c level were given in Palaeolimnology, Biomonitoring, Toxicology & Biomonitoring, Ecology, Taxonomy, Morphology & Systematics, Physiology & Physiological Responses and Biogeography & Biodiversity. CEM included some ³¿UVWV´ in the organization of this international cycle of symposia such as a session on Palaeolimnology, emphasizing the importance of chironimids in assessing both past and present impacts in global issues such as climate change, an open debate on “Divulging Chironomid research: bibliography and data bases´ and a post symposium taxonomic workshop held at CEM’s laboratory facilities where researchers discussed and examined material and shared ideas. We extend our sincere thanks to everyone who contributed to the symposium’s success and to the preparation and publication of these proceedings, in particular the Director of the Museu Municipal do Funchal for agreeing to the publication of the symposium proceedings as a special supplement of the Boletim and colleagues from CEM and the Instituto Superior de Agronomia in Lisbon who translated proceedings abstracts into Portuguese. Many thanks to the organizing committee members for their dedication and willingness to carry out tasks prior to, during and after the symposium. Finally, a very special thank you to all of the sponsors for their extraordinary generosity, in particular the Empresa de Electricidade, various sectors of the Madeiran Regional Government and the Fundação para Ciência e a Tecnologia (FCT).
