PLIENSBACHIAN
The 'Pliensbachian' (also known as 'Charmouthian') is a stage of the Early Jurassic Epoch. It spans the time between 189.6 ± 1.5 Ma and 183 ± 1.5 Ma (million years ago).
The stage takes its name from the town of Pliensbach, some 30 km east of Stuttgart in Germany. Minerals and fossils from the region are displayed in a museum in Göppingen. The Pliensbachian ended with the extinction event called the Toarcian turnover.
In Europe this period is also known as the 'Middle Lias Stage'.
