The main purpose of the paper is to highlight the crustal seismicity of the Black Sea, taking into account and the tsunamigenic potential. According to the distribution map of earthquakes epicenters and as well as to the map of the areas with active faults, were established nine seismic sources such as Central Dobrogea (S1), Shabla (S2), Istanbul (S3), North Anatolian Fault (S4), Georgia (S5), Novorossjsk (S6), Crimea (S7), West Black Sea (S8) and Mid Black Sea (S9).
