The microstructural changes by hot extrusion of AZ31B magnesium alloy were observed, and the relation to the tensile property was examined. The tensile properties as oriented longitudinal(L), half transverse(HT) and long transverse(LT) to the extrusion direction were investigated at $20^{circ}C,;100^{circ}C,;200^{circ}C,;300^{circ}C;and;400^{circ}C$, respectively. As the results, many recrystallized small grains distributed uniformly in large banded microstructures formed along the extrusion direction. The grain size of as-extruded specimen was around $30~150;{mu}m$. As increasing the test temperature the tensile and yield strength with respect to the angle between the axis of the tensile and the longitudinal direction in extrusion was decreased, but their elongation were increased and their deviation between L and LT specimens have disappeared from $300^{circ}C$. This mechanical anisotropy was reduced at elevated temperatures and almost disappeared at $400^{circ}C$. It was considered that the homogenization was occured by the recrystallization and the change of slip system was occurred during tensile test process in elevated temperatures.
