In the course of examining the wide dynamic range records of the aftershocks of the Tokachi-oki Earthquake of 1968, the seventy two shocks having similar wave forms out of about 50, 000 aftershocks were found by means of a simple but systematic data sorting. High correlations in P and later phases are clear not only among the events of the same order of magnitude but also among the events with considerably different magnitudes (M= 1=4. 6). The recurrent occurrence of such events can be traced for the length of about 50 days, which is much longer duration compared with so-called twin or triple shocks reported so far. The activity is, as a whole, a swarm type; however, it is composed of several foreshock-main shock-aftershock sequences. The determination of hypocenters for the several large shocks shows that the events are closely distributed in space within the range of 5 km, which suggests that they have common spatial and dynamical characters. Hereby, the group of earthquakes having a similar wave character can be called an Earthquake Family, which may be the most basic unit of sequence of shocks. The nature of this family is characterized by a small b-value of 0. 43 (total number= 68) in the Gutenberg-Richter's formula: this result is in qualitative harmony with Mogi's explanation on b-value. The variations of P wave spectral amplitude ratio with magnitude are compared with the w2and w3-theoretical source models and the a2-model agrees well with the observed data in the frequency range between 4. 6 and 16. 2 Hz. The average Qa in the crust is estimated to be 400 from the frequency dependence of the difference between the observed and theoretical amplitude ratio.
