A terminal (1) has resilient curl portions (3, 3) integrally formed respectively on opposite side edges of a base plate portion (2), each of the resilient curl portions (3, 3) being inwardly bent into a generally mountain-like cross-sectional shape. Retaining piece portions (5, 5) are integrally formed respectively on the resilient curl portions (3, 3), and the retaining piece portions (5, 5) have flat surfaces, respectively, which are spaced a desired distance at least from as the base plate portion (2) in generally parallel relation thereto, and one end (15) of each of the retaining piece portions, forming part of a contour thereof, is engageable with a retaining member (23) formed on a connector housing (20) for receiving the terminal.
