A specimen container includes an opening for receiving biological fluid specimens, and a body, wherein at least one of a body mid-section and a container base is substantially wider than the opening. The body mid-section may be curved and wider than the container base. Alternatively, the body mid-section may be flat and narrower than the container base. A detachable lid may be configured to cover the opening. In another embodiment, a specimen container includes a base member, a set of wall members fixedly connected to the base member, and a deflector cap configured to deflect fluid specimen material back into the specimen container. Advantages of the present invention include a specimen container that allows more complete and easier specimen collection and retention. These advantages may be achieved, at least in part, through better shape optimization of the specimen container.
