The ildis.org domain name will expire on 14th September 2027.
This means that the old ILDIS web-site will no longer be accessible using that domain.
If you or your organisation would like to take responsibility for the domain name before it disappears, and provide services for botanists, scientists and others interested in the “legume” plant family Fabaceae (formerly known as Leguminosae), please let me know.
ILDIS (International Legume Database and Information Service)
The pioneering International Legume Database and Information Service is no longer operating,
and its database has been updated and is now part of :
:.
The original ILDIS web-site will remain available for some time,
but will not be updated.
The ildis,org domain name will disappear in September 2027 unless someone else takes it over,
but the web-site may remain accessible at ildis.rwhite.uk for an extended period.
Please let me know of any problems (Richard White).
History
According to Peter Brewer's PhD project first year report (November 2001), ILDIS (Bisby et al. 2000, 2001) began in 1985 (Zarucchi et al., 1993) and was (at version 5 in 2001) “nearing completion”.
The 5th ILDIS Workshop was held at Reading (17-18 November 2005) immediately following the 7th UK Legume Workshop held at Kew (15 November 2005).
Descendants
ILDIS was one of the first two or three Global Species Databases (GSDs) contributing to the Catalogue of Life.
