The IAAF’s hyperandrogenism regulations suspended
No full textOn 27 July, the Court of Arbitration for Sport (‘CAS’) delivered a landmark ruling on the regulation of gender in sport. The decision explores how the categorisation of sport on the basis of sex can be best reconciled with the “biological reality” that human sex cannot necessarily be divided so clearly. Dr. Seema Patel, Senior Lecturer at Nottingham Trent University, Deputy Director of the Centre for Sports Law and author of ‘Inclusion and Exclusion in Competitive Sport: Socio-Legal and Regulatory Perspectives,’ reviews the case and suggests that sport regulation must be cautious of traditional criteria to determine eligibility in sports

Castianeira tinae Patel & Patel 1973
No full textCastianeira tinae Patel & Patel, 1973 Castianeira Tinae Patel & Patel, 1973: 6, fig. 3a–g (♂ ♀). Castianeira tinae: Feng, 1990: 173, fig. 148.1–4 (not ♂, ♀); Majumder & Tikader, 1991: 140, figs 292–296 (♀). Remarks. This species was described based on male and female specimens collected from Vallabh Vidhyanagar (22 o 32’51.56’’N, 72 o 55’30.50’’E; 41 m alt) in Gujarat. The type material of this species was not examined as it is not deposited in NZC-ZSI. It is noteworthy that Patel and Patel (1973) provided no repository information for this species. The original illustrations, even though they are highly schematic, provide hints regarding similarity of this species with Castianeira zetes Simon, 1897, particularly the shape and orientation of the embolus, and outline of the epigyne. The male pedipalp of this species illustrated in Feng (1990: figs 148.3–4) is, however, not of a Castianeira species, but is of Corinnomma severum (Thorell, 1887) (cf. Feng 1990: fig. 148.3 and Deeleman-Reinhold 2001: fig. 469). The subsequent illustrations of the epigyne of C. tinae (Feng 1990: fig. 148.1–2; Majumder & Tikader 1991: figs 293–294) also indicate its resemblance to C. zetes. However, its synonymy with C. zetes can only be confirmed after examining the type specimen of the species.Published as part of Sankaran, Pradeep M., Caleb, John T.
