Abstract：The Xuwen ML 4.2 earthquake occurred on November 22nd, 2015. Based on the analysis of earthquake sequence, epicenter distribution, focal mechanism and seismo-geological structure, it's believed that the ML 4.2 earthquake is mainshock-aftershock type with a feature of strike slip fault. The ML 4.2 earthquake with seismic intensity of Ⅲ-Ⅳ, is clearly felt in some areas of Xuwen and Haikou. This paper summarizes the seismic sequence characteristics of the ML 4.2 earthquake, and discusses the geophysical phenomenon before the earthquake
Keywords：Xuwen earthquakeEarthquake sequenceSeismo-geological structureFocal mechanismGeophysical phenomenon
