Want this question answered?
An era is a span of time, so there was no era at that time. It was, however, the end of one era and the beginning of another. More specifically it was the end of the Mesozoic and the beginning of the Cenozoic.
This era, the Cenozoic era, is the age of mammals. But among botanists and paleobotanists, it is known as the age of flowers -- the anthophyta.The extinction of the dinosaurs of the Mesozoic Era allowed mammals to proliferate and diversify.
Mesozoic era is called the era of creepers.In this era there are three periods viz Triassic,Jurassic and carboniferous. It is found that in Triassic era, reptiles were evolved and in Jurassic era they were dominant.That is why Mesozoic era is called the era of creepers/reptiles.
The Age of Reptiles refers to the Mesozoic Era.
mesozoic era
The Paleozoic precedes the Mesozoic. And our current era, the Cenozoic, follows the Mesozoic.
The Paleozoic precedes the Mesozoic. And our current era, the Cenozoic, follows the Mesozoic.
The Phanerozoic Eon(542Ma - now) is made up of the Paleozoic Era(542 - 251 Ma), the MesozoicEra(251 - 65.5Ma) and the Cenozoic Era(65.5Ma - now)
Paleozoic, Mesozoic and Cenozoic are examples of geological era from the Phanerozoic Eon.
The current era is Cenozoic era. The preceding era was Mesozoic era. However if you are looking for periods in Cenozoic era, the current one is Neogene period, the preceding period was paleogene period.

Mesozoic Era
The Cenozoic era started 65 million years ago.
ok im going to start off by saying this, the last answerer is stupid, and doesnt know what he is talking about. it goes from: PERIOD ERA EPOCH there you go ;)
When it was formed, it was in the Mesozoic era, but it ended in the Cenozoic era.
it is cooler {apex}
