Swiss Orchid Foundation

Does anyone know if the Swiss Orchid Foundation database is still online? Used to use it to help identify species and I keep getting a URL deactivated message.

 

Thanks and wow! I wonder what’s going on over there? I know Rudi Jenny used to be part of that organization, but since his passing I wouldn’t know who to contact.

 

For those interested, I did hear back from the curator of the Herbarium and Botanical Garden at the University of Basel. Apparently the Orchid database was taken offline as it was on an older platform and deemed a security risk. It will eventually be back online under a different platform, however, there is some uncertainty of when due to lack of dedicated resources.
