Ecuador was shaken near Puyo, Pastaza, by an earthquake of magnitude 5.6 31 minutes ago, The Colombian Geological Service (SGC) reported.
The quake hit at an intermediate to considerable depth of 185. km beneath the epicenter near Puyo, Pastaza, Ecuador, in the morning on Wednesday, September 3rd, 2025, at 9:56 am local time. The strength of the earthquake may have been tempered by its relative great depth below the surface, which makes it feel weaker in absolute terms. Magnitude and other quake parameters can still change in the coming hours as the agency continues to process seismic data.
Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake should not have caused any significant damage, but was probably felt by many people as light vibration in the area of the epicenter.
Weak shaking might have been felt in Palora (pop. 6,500) located 2 km from the epicenter, Puyo (pop. 24,900) 26 km away, Banos (pop. 9,500) 63 km away, Macas (pop. 23,700) 68 km away, Pelileo (pop. 16,600) 79 km away, Tena (pop. 17,200) 82 km away, Ambato (pop. 387,300) 90 km away, and Latacunga (pop. 205,600) 114 km away.
VolcanoDiscovery will automatically update magnitude and depth if these change and follow up if other significant news about the quake become available. If you’re in the area, please send

An earthquake of magnitude 5.5 occurred in the morning on Wednesday, September 3rd, 2025, at 9:56 am local time near Puyo, Pastaza, Ecuador, as reported by The Colombian Geological Service (SGC).
According to preliminary data, the quake was located at an intermediate to considerable depth of 175. km. The strength of the earthquake may have been tempered by its relative great depth below the surface, which makes it feel weaker in absolute terms. The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their report.
Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake should not have caused any significant damage, but was probably felt by many people as light vibration in the area of the epicenter.
Weak shaking might have been felt in Palora (pop. 6,500) located 18 km from the epicenter, Puyo (pop. 24,900) 22 km away, Banos (pop. 9,500) 44 km away, Pelileo (pop. 16,600) 59 km away, Macas (pop. 23,700) 73 km away, Tena (pop. 17,200) 80 km away, Latacunga (pop. 205,600) 97 km away, and Guaranda (pop. 22,200) 98 km away.
