There is disclosed a connector in which provide even a small-size terminal can be retained with a large retaining force, and the retaining of the terminal can be released without the use of a release tool. In the connector, a terminal is inserted into each of receiving chambers, formed in a housing, from a rear side of the receiving chamber, and is retained in the receiving chamber. A pair of opposed retaining portions are formed in the receiving chamber, and have respective slanting surfaces converging in a direction of insertion of the terminal. The terminal has a pair of opposed retaining plates which slide respectively over the slanting surfaces to be resiliently deformed in a direction perpendicular to the direction of insertion of the terminal when the terminal is inserted. The pair of retaining plates, when passed past the slanting surfaces, are resiliently restored to be retainingly engaged respectively with the pair of retaining portions.
