A memory card adaptor which enables a small memory card to be used in a card connector for a large memory card that is larger than the small memory card, wherein said adaptor, comprises:

• a large memory card type adaptor body having outer dimensions to accommodate a large memory card, and to which a small memory card incorporating plural contacts is to be attached, said adaptor body having a conductive cover with a first elongated portion and a second elongated portion, and an insulative base;
• a connecting terminal which is elastically displaceable and formed integrally on said conductive cover;
• plural grounding contacts, wherein:
• and
• said connecting terminal is contacted with said plural grounding contacts to electrically connect said grounding contacts together, and said grounding contacts with said conductive cover;
• said second elongated portion in which an end part is elongated to a position opposed to a portion where said plural contacts are exposed from said adaptor body is formed integrally with said conductive cover;
• a folded piece is formed integrally with an end part of said second elongated portion, said connecting terminal is formed integrally with an end part of said folded piece, and disposed on an inner face side of said second elongated portion;
• an insulator which holds said plural grounding contacts in an insulated state is sandwiched between said second elongated portion and said insulative base;
• and
• said folded piece and said connecting terminal are placed inside a housing hole formed in said insulator.
