Non capisco che stava facendo quello piccolino sotto il grande ;) non che il grade lo stava proteggendo se anche lui/lei e solo un bimbo- la ninfa ;)

Plecoptera, Perlidae and most probably Perla sp. and probably Perla grandis. Please, verify. Stoneflies are usually not my business...
Could also be the exuviae/exoskeleton!
Anche chiamata grande plecottero, ninfa.

looks like the other bug is a baby. The bigger bug could be exhibiting parental behavior.
