Riga 10:
In [[North America]], where the interval consists primarily of marine [[limestone]]s, it was in the past treated as a full-fledged geologic period between the [[Devonian]] and the [[Pennsylvanian]]. In [[Europe]], the Mississippian and Pennsylvanian are one more-or-less continuous sequence of lowland continental deposits and are grouped together as the [[Carboniferous]] [[system (stratigraphy)|system]], and sometimes called the ''[[Upper Carboniferous]]'' and ''[[Lower Carboniferous]]'' instead. During the Mississippian subperiod an important phase of [[orogeny]] occurred in the [[Appalachian Mountains]].

==Suddivisioni {{anchor|SubdivisionsSuddivisioni}}==<!--
Nella scala del tempo geologica ufficiale, i Mississippiano viene suddiviso in tre stadi:
In the official geologic timescale, the Mississippian is subdivided into three stages:
 
*[[Tournaisiano]] - da 359.2 ± 2.5 a 345.3 ± 2.1 milioni di anni fa
*[[Tournaisian]] {{period span|Tournaisian}}
*[[Viseano]] - da 345.3 ± 2.1 a 326.4 ± 1.6 milioni di anni fa
*[[Visean]] {{period span|Visean}}
*[[Serpukhoviano]] - da 326.4 ± 1.6 a 318.1 ± 1.3 milioni di anni fa
*[[Serpukhovian]] {{period span|Serpukhovian}}
 
I primi due vengono dalla stratigrafia europea, l'ultimo da quella russa. Oltre all'Europa e Russia, ci sono molte suddivisioni locali che sono usate come alternative per la scala del tempo internazionale. Nel sistema nordamericano, il Mississippiano viene suddiviso in quattro stadi:
The first two come from European stratigraphy, the last is from Russian stratigraphy. Besides Europe and Russia, there are many local subdivisions that are used as alternatives for the international timescale. In the North American system, the Mississippian is subdivided into four stages:
 
*[[Kinderhookiano]] (inferiore di due terzi del Tournaisiano)
*[[Osageano]] (Tournaisiano superiore e inferiore del Viseano)
*[[Merameciano]] (Viseano intermedio)
*[[Chesteriano]] (Viseano superiore più Serpukhoviano)
 
*[[Kinderhookian]] (the lower two-thirds of the Tournaisian)
*[[Osagean]] (top of the Tournaisian and bottom of the Visean)
*[[Meramecian]] (middle Visean)
*[[Chesterian]] (top of the Visean plus the Serpukhovian)
