The Tiupampan (Spanish: Tiupampense) age is a period of geologic time (64.5–62.5 Ma) within the Paleocene epoch of the Paleogene used more specifically with South American land mammal ages (SALMA). It is the oldest SALMA age and precedes the Peligran age.[1]

Etymology

edit

The age is named after the paleontological site Tiupampa in Bolivia.
