Abstract Listric faults of different levels and scales are widely developed in the lithosphere. According to their tectonomechanical geneses, the author divides listric faults into primary and secondary ones, and the former may be subdivided into gravity‐ gliding listric faults, regional extensional listric normal faults, regional contractional reverse listric faults and deep‐ seated ductile listric faults. By means of the slip‐ line field theory dealing with Mohr's criterion expressed by quadratic limiting curves, the author has preliminarily determined the occurrences, patterns and mechanical properties of various types of listric faults during their formation, and has analyzed their tectonic evolution and related dynamic processes in the lithosphere.
