In the geological timescale, the Tithonian is the latest age of the Late Jurassic Epoch and the uppermost stage of the Upper Jurassic Series. It spans the time between 149.2 ±0.7 Ma and 143.1 ±0.6 (million years ago). It is preceded by the Kimmeridgian and followed by the Berriasian (part of the Cretaceous).

Nella scala dei tempi geologici, il Titoniano rappresenta il terzo dei tre stadi stratigrafici o età in cui è suddiviso il Giurassico superiore, l'ultima epoca del periodo Giurassico. È compreso tra 150,8 ± 4,0 e 145,5 ± 4,0 milioni di anni fa (Ma), preceduto dal Kimmeridgiano e seguito dal Berriasiano, la prima età del Cretacico.
