The basic characteristics of earthquake rupture of intraplate reverse fault and sign of its segmentation have been discussed in detail based on the type and size of surface rupture, tectonic environment, geometric form,kinematics character, as well as the aftershock distribution patterns for 16 intraplate earthquakes produced by reverse fault in the world wide.The result shows that earthquake ruptures of reverse fault are different from that of strike slip fault and normal fault. The rupture size along the strike for reverse fault is much more short, and the rupture pattern often has a two dimensional plane distribution. The seismic fault does not show on the ground or only part of seismic fault shows on the ground. The earthquake ruptures of reverse fault are still complexer than that of the strike slip fault and normal fault in the mechanics character of an individual fracture and the geometric structure.
