An HC filter ( 10 ) for use in an air cleaner ( 200 ) comprises an absorbent that absorbs hydrocarbon (HC) contained in vaporized fuel and a support that supports the absorbent. The support is of a paper honeycomb structure and has a surface thereof coated. An HC filter fixing frame ( 20 ) for attaching the HC filter in the housing of the air cleaner comprises a frame-like body ( 21 ) and a lattice ( 22 ). The lattice ( 22 ) is placed so as not to contact the HC filter ( 10 ), and bosses ( 30 ) are provided on the side of the lattice facing the HC filter, which contact and hold the HC filter at a side thereof. In the air cleaner ( 200 ), an HC filter unit ( 100 ) consisting of the HC filter ( 10 ) and the HC filter fixing frame ( 20 ) can be situated over the entire cross-section of the passage at a position adjacent to sealing faces.
