Period of geologic time within the Middle Miocene epoch
The Laventan (
Spanish : Laventense ) age is a period of
geologic time (13.8 to 11.8
Ma ) within the
Middle Miocene epoch of the
Neogene , used more specifically within the
SALMA classification in South America. It follows the
Colloncuran and precedes the
Mayoan age.
[1]
[2]
The age is named after the Miocene
Lagerstätte
La Venta , where a rich
biodiversity from the Middle Miocene has been recovered from the
Honda Group .
