A strong (Mw=6.7) intermediate depth earthquake occurred on 8 January 2006 (11:34 UTC) in southwestern&#13; Aegean Sea (Greece) causing limited damage to structures on the nearby islands of Kythira and Antikythira, as&#13; well as western Crete Island. The epicentral area belongs to the SW segment of the Hellenic Arc, which is known&#13; to be associated with the occurrence of large shallow and intermediate depth earthquakes, mainly due to the&#13; subduction of the Eastern Mediterranean oceanic lithosphere under the Aegean microplate. The main shock occurred&#13; on a dextral strike slip fault at a depth of 75 km, within the descending slab, as it is revealed by both, the&#13; spatial distribution of the accurately located aftershocks and its fault plane solution determined in the present&#13; study and implying a slab-pull event. The aftershock activity from 8 to 31 January 2006 is distributed in depths&#13; ranging from 55 to 75 km, and being comprised in an almost rectangular and vertical plane with a length equal&#13; to 28 km and a width of 20 km, which adequately defines the dimensions of the rupture area. The geometry of&#13; the Wadati-Benioff zone in this area, namely the southwestern part of the Hellenic Arc, is explored by an exhaustive&#13; analysis of all the available phase arrivals gathered from the International Seismological Centre, and the&#13; relocation of the earthquakes occurred since 1964 in the South-West Aegean region
