This article designs a framework for evaluating the causes, consequences, and future implications of financial services industry consolidation, reviews the extant research literature within the context of this framework (over 250 references), and suggests fruitful avenues for future research

Heterogeneous supernumerary chromosomes (Bs) are recognized in the oryzomyines Holochilus brasiliensis, Nectomys rattus, N. squamipes,Oligoryzomys flavescens and Sooretamys angouya, representing about 10 % of all known B-containing rodent species. They provide an outstanding model for understanding the origin, evolution and diversity of Bs in a phylogenetic context. Therefore, whole chromosome-specific probes were gener-ated from flow-sorted Holochilus brasiliensis (HBR) autosomes 11 and 25+26 and chromo-somes X, Y and Bs. Hybridizations were performed on male metaphases of 15 Oryzomyini species of which 3 are B-containing species. The results reveal that among the species sampled, 12 of them, belonging to a monophyletic Oryzomiyini subclade, are positive for an anonymous Oryzomyini shared heterochromatic region (OSHR) on both sex chromosomes. TheOSHR is also present on Bs of Holochilus brasiliensis, Nectomys rattus and N. squa-mipes but not on Bs ofO. flavescens and S. angouya. Two distinct additional OSHR/auto-some associations are observed on S. angouya. The three species that are OSHR negative belong to an outgroup. Molecular dating suggests that the OSHR originated between 7.8

Tooth shape was investigated in 20 species of extant European carnivorans with diverse diets. The rake angle of the upper and lower carnassial crests were measured. The rake angle is the angle of the leading surface of the crest with the direction of movement and is an indicator of the mechanical
