{{Short description|North American faunal stage}}
The '''Torrejonian 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 63,300,000 to 60,200,000 years [[Before Present|BP]] lasting {{Mya|63.3-60.2|million years}}.<ref>[https://paleodb.org/cgi-bin/bridge.pl?action=displayInterval&interval_no=234 Paleobiology Database, Torrejonian]</ref>

It is usually considered to overlap the [[Selandian]] and [[Thanetian]] within the [[Paleocene]].

The Torrejonian is preceded by the [[Puercan]] and followed by the [[Tiffanian]] NALMA stages.

The Torrejonian is considered to be contained within the [[Danian]] and contains the following substages:
*To3: Lower boundary source of the base of the Torrejonian (approximate).
*To2: Lower boundary source of the base of the Torrejonian (approximate) and upper boundary source of the base of the Selandian (approximate).
*To1: Upper boundary source (61.7 Ma) of the base of the Selandian (approximate).
