along the northem margin of Izu Peninsula，central Japan．Bul1．Geol．Surv．Japan，vo1． 43（10），p．603－657，24fig．，6tab． Aわstr＆ct二The northem tip of the oceanic Philippine Sea plate （PHS）is generally thought to have been colliding with the continental Eurasian plate （EUR）at the northem margin ofIzu Peninsula（lzu Borderland），central Japan． Intense Quatemary crustal movement，such as active faulting with high slip－ rate and rapid uplifting or subsiding，occurs along this inland plate boundary． Although this crustal movement seems to have close relationship with the convergence of the plates，the regional diversity of the tectonics along the boundary has not yet been studied so well as to reveal their characteristics in the framework of plate tectonics． To clarify the significance of these regional Quatemary tectonics，the author described the faulting and related geological history in the following three subdivisions ofthe Izu Borderland：1）the areato tゑenorth ofSuruga Bay， 2）the area along the southem margin of Tanzawa Mts．and3）Ashigara Plain－ Oiso Hills areas。Withrespectto evaluating ofthe tectonics in eacharea，much attention was paid not only to the relative slip－rate of each active fault used in the previous works，but also to the absolute movement of each block divided by active faults． Many features associated with Quatemary tectonics in and around the Izu Borderland were revealed．The Quatemary system in the studied area is classified into basin－fill type deposits （1a and lb） and non－basin－fill type （2a and2b）according to their thickness，1ithofacies and tectonic features．The study of the tectonic evolution in the Izu Borderland revealed two common features，i．e．1）subsiding basins gradually turned into uplifting areas，2）active faulting and subsiding migrated systematically towards Izu Peninsula through theQuatemaryperiod．AcircularevolutionofthetectonicsintheIzu Borderland was concluded from these geological and tectonic features．The process of this tectonic evolution is very similar to the growth of accretionary prism which is formed along the trench axis at the foot of continental slope associated with the plate subduction． The Quatemary tectonics in most part of the Izu Borderland has been controlled not by a uniform plate collision but by buoyant subduction of the P：HS under the EUR resulting in the development of the accretionary prism on land，On the other hand，intense regional uplift occurred along the southwestem margin of Tanzawa Mts．since the Middle Pleistocene with no conspicuous ＊Seismotectonic Research Sect圭on，Dept．

existing subduction to present－day collision． Many active faults with short length and high slip－rate around the Izu Borderland are interpreted as imbricated thrusts in the accretionary prism． Hence，the active faults inthe plateboundary zone cannot be placed on the same level with the active faults in other inland regions． 1．INTR（）DUCT亘ON faults suggest that the fault movements have close
