A female terminal body consists of elastic contact pieces which are separated from each other in a peripheral direction by slits elongating in a longitudinal direction, a cylindrical base portion for fixing a sleeve, a conductor clamping portion to which a conductor of an electric wire W is to be fixed, and a wire cover clamping portion. The elastic contact pieces are disposed in a front part of the terminal body, the cylindrical base portion in a middle part, and the conductor clamping portion and the wire cover clamping portion in a rear part. The elastic contact pieces elongating from the cylindrical base portion constitute a cylinder having a diameter which gradually decreases as moving more distant from the cylindrical base portion, so that the male terminal is pressingly contacted to and clamped by their front ends. In order to facilitate the insertion of the male terminal, the front end portion of the cylinder has a diameter which gradually increases. The cylindrical base portion is formed into a rectangular cylindrical shape. A press fitting receiving portion is disposed at a predetermined position of each of edges of the cylindrical base portion.
