100% of events here are shallow (under 70 km), 0% intermediate (70–300 km) and 0% deep-focus (over 300 km). Almost everything here is crustal. That is characteristic of transform faulting or continental deformation rather than subduction — and it means shaking at the surface is strong for the magnitudes involved.
By band, the catalogue holds 2 in the magnitude 4 range.
The month's largest events were M4.2 near Himarë, Albania on 08 June at 10 km; M4.0 near Himarë, Albania on 12 June at 10 km.
