On 21 August 2017, a shallow earthquake of Md 4.0 struck the Casamicciola Terme village in the north of Ischia volcanic island (Italy). The earthquake has the typical characteristics of volcano­ tectonic events recorded at active volcanoes and occurred along the E­W normal system fault bounding the northern slope of Mt. Epomeo. The epicentral area has been repeatedly damaged in the last three centuries (1796, 1828, 1881, 1883) [Alessio et al., 1996; Carlino et al., 2011; Cubellis and Luongo, 1998]. In this work, we present a collection of pictures showing the geological effects produced on either the natural or the built environment by the Casamicciola earthquake. Most of the coseismic geologic effects were observed along the E­W piedmont belt of Mt. Epomeo, which extends for about 2 km...
