Description :
In this paper is described a complicated grid of Plio-Pleistocene net- and strike-slip fault system, which occrred owing to the genesis of tectonic depressions in the nortern off-shore areas and some contemporaneous outcropping transgressional structures of the Sicilian Chain. This neotectonic system may be related to a W-E trending simple shear system, which controls the Tyrrhenian Basin development. - (NF)
