Eocene (Paleogene, Cenozoic, ... Styles and Periods (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: On the geologic time scale the second epoch of the Tertiary period of the Cenozoic era, or the second of the more recently designated Paleogene. It extends from about 55 to 34 million years ago and is marked by warm climate, the proliferation of many modern groups of organisms, especially mammalian families and molluscs, and the emergence of what is now the Himalayan range.

Additional Notes: |
|
| Dutch ..... Op de geologische tijdschaal het tweede tijdvak van het tertiair, ofwel van het meer recent gebruikte paleogeen, binnen het cenozoïcum. Het duurde van ongeveer 55 miljoen tot 34 miljoen jaar geleden en werd getypeerd door een warm klimaat, de verspreiding van veel moderne groepen organismen, vooral zoog- en weekdierfamilies, en de vorming van wat nu het Himalayagebergte is. |
