It is a "period" and then an "epoch".
The order of the geologic time intervals is Eon, Era, Period, Epoch.
After an era, the next smallest division of time would be an epoch. An epoch is equal to around 10,000,000 years, where as an era is 100,000,000 years.
It is an age. The second smallest is a period.
