RIP phylodiversity.net

2001-11-08 to 2021-11-08

After 20 years, I am shutting down ‘phylodiversity.net’. The tagline was “a permanent home for biodiversity, systematics, phylogenetics, and bioinformatics research”... well not quite permanent, but it had a good run! I started phylodiversity.net while I was a postdoc at Yale, with encouragement from Michael Donoghue. Thanks to all who contributed to the site and to the community (including Chuck Bell, Will Cornwell, Kyle Dexter, Michael Donoghue, Amy Driskell, Dianella Howarth, Brian Moore, Charlie Nunn, Rick Ree, Richard Winkworth, Amy Zanne, Jinlong Zhang). And thanks to all who visited!

You can still see old versions of the site via the Internet Archive (please consider supporting IA). For new homes for resources see: phylomatic & phylocom.

2022-10-12: I recently discovered that an unknown agent has (legitimately) bought the phylodiversity.net domain name, but is also illegitimately hosting all the old, depreciated phylodiversity.net web pages at that domain. There is nothing I can do to fix this! Sorry for any confusion. (Learn from my mistake: If you decide to depreciate a long-running website and domain, consider paying for the domain for a few more years after taking the website down.) On a lighter note, when I subtitled the site “a permanent home for biodiversity, systematics, phylogenetics, and bioinformatics research” little did I know that that might indeed be the case!
