unbelievable! This is the only one I use, and it's clear and simple. what a waste...
what can you recommend as a good replacement? Galaxy?
Well that’s sucky news. I’ve used CIRPES to run phylogenetic/evolutionary analyses from grad school to present. Such an important computational resource for the evolutionary biology community. What a loss. 😢

Cartoon Ichneumonid faces! One genus for each subfamily is represented. It was a fun project that I worked on in December of 2023. Hopefully the genera listed below are visible at this resolution! #Ichneumonidae
