The Rhaetian Stage is the final stage of the Late Triassic Period. It lasted from 203.6 ± 1.5 to 199.6 ± 0.6 million years ago. It was preceded by the Norian Stage of the Triassic Period and succeeded by the Hettangian Stage of the Jurassic Period.

Paleogeography[]

At this stage, Pangaea began to break-up, though the Atlantic Ocean was not yet formed.
