Period of geologic time within the Middle Miocene epoch
The Colloncuran (Spanish: Colloncurense) age is a period of geologic time (15.5–13.8 Ma) within the Middle Miocene epoch of the Neogene, used more specifically within the SALMA classification in South America. It follows the Friasian and precedes the Laventan age.[1]
