The Mammal Paleogene zones or MP zones are divisions of the Paleogene period developed by Matthijs Freudenthal in 2006 to help paleontologists provide more specific reference points to geological periods in Europe, but are used by other paleontologists as well.
The Mammal Paleogene zones or MP zones are biostratigraphic zones in the stratigraphic record of the Paleogene period of Europe. These zones were developed by Matthijs Freudenthal in 2006 to help paleontologists provide more specific reference points to evolutionary events in Europe, but are used by paleontologists on other continents as well.
