Blancan
The Blancan North American Stage on the geologic timescale is the North American faunal stage according to the North American Land Mammal Ages chronology (NALMA), typically set from 4,750,000 to 1,808,000 years BP, a period of .〔( Blancan North American Stage ). GeoWhen Database. Version 1.1.0. Retrieved 2007-NOV-09.〕 It is usually considered to start in the early-mid Pliocene Epoch and end by the early Pleistocene.〔 The Blancan is preceded by the Hemphillian and followed by the Irvingtonian NALMA stages.
As usually defined, it corresponds to the mid-Zanclean through Piacenzian and Gelasian stages in Europe and Asia. In California, the Blancan roughly corresponds to the mid-Delmontian through Repettian and Venturian to the very early Wheelerian. The Australian contemporary stages are the mid-Cheltenhamian through Kalimnan and Yatalan. In New Zealand, the Opoitian starts at roughly the same time and the Blancan is further coeval with the Waipipian and Mangapanian stages to the early Nukumaruan. Finally, in Japan the Blancan starts coeval with the late Yuian, runs alongside the Totomian and Suchian and ends soon after the start of the Kechienjian.

The start date of the Blancan has not been fully established. There is general agreement that it is between 4.9〔 and 4.3 mya (million years ago).〔 The often-cited GeoWhen database places it at 4.75 mya.〔
There is even stronger disagreement about the end of the Blancan. Some stratigraphers argue for the 1.808 mya date that corresponds better with the end of the Pliocene and the start of the Pleistocene (1.808 mya). This conforms with the extinction of ''Borophagus'', ''Hypolagus'', ''Paenemarmota'', ''Plesippus'', ''Nannippus'', and ''Rhynchotherium'' faunal assemblage between 2.2 and 1.8 mya.〔 Other paleontologists find continuity of the faunal assemblages well into the Pleistocene, and argue for an end date of 1.2 mya. This corresponds with the extinction of stegomastodons and related species and the appearance of mammoths in southern North America.〔
