1. A liquid ejection head, comprising:
- a plurality of element substrates configured to include an ejection opening face on which an ejection opening is formed and an element for ejecting ink through the ejection opening;
a plurality of first retention members configured to retain the element substrates;
a second retention member configured to retain the plurality of first retention members;
a cover member configured to be provide on an upper side of the first retention members so as to extend along a direction along which the plurality of first retention members are arranged, the cover member including a face on which a cap member covering the ejection opening face is abutted; and
a sealing member configured to seal a space surrounded by the plurality of first retention members, the second retention member, and the cover member.

Abstract
In order that the interior of a cap member, in a case where the cap member abuts to a cover member, is allowed to have improved airtightness so that the cap member can sufficiently function, a sealing member is used to seal between the cover member and first and second flow path members for retaining the cover member.
