Delayed showers are investigated for extensive air showers with primary energy above 10 to the 15th eV. Experimental results are reported on the delay time frequency, the correlation between the delay time and the distance from the core axis, and the lateral distribution. It is concluded that the delayed showers are caused by a heavy particle. By taking a model in which the delayed shower originates from decay products of a heavy particle, the mass and lifetime are estimated as 40 to 60 GeV/c-squared and 0.8 x 10 to the -6th s, respectively.
