Huayquerian
Period of geologic time (9.0–6.8 Ma)
The Huayquerian (Spanish : Huayqueriense ) age is a period of geologic time (9.0–6.8 Ma ) within the Late Miocene epoch of the Neogene , used more specifically within the SALMA classification . It follows the Chasicoan and precedes the Montehermosan age.[ 1]
Etymology
The age is named after the Huayquerías Formation in the western Cuyo Basin of northwestern Argentina that was later dated to the Montehermosan . The most complete Huayquerian fauna is found in the Cerro Azul Formation , in Buenos Aires Province also referred to as Epecuén Formation.
