The recent paper by Dellong et al. does not report properly the literature on the Malta Escarpment and its tectonic activity. Moreover, the published set of data allows an alternative interpretation of one of their refraction profiles, which implies that only incipient subduction is present south of the Messina Strait, without need for well-developed lithospheric tear faults south of Mt. Etna.

Abstract
The recent paper by Dellong et al. does not report properly the literature on the Malta Escarpment and its tectonic activity. Moreover, the published set of data allows an alternative interpretation of one of their refraction profiles, which implies that only incipient subduction is present south of the Messina Strait, without need for well-developed lithospheric tear faults south of Mt. Etna.File in questo prodotto:
