Abstract

Abstract A silver halide color photographic material which comprises a support, a silver halide emulsion layer provided thereon and a layer provided contiguous to said silver halide emulsion layer, said silver halide emulsion layer containing silver halide crystals of which average crystal size is not greater than 0.9 microns and at least 95% by number of total crystals have crystal sizes falling within ±40% said average crystal size, and said silver halide emulsion layer and/or said layer contiguous thereto containing a compound represented by the following general formula [I] ##STR1## where R 1 and R 2 independently represent an alkyl group having 6 to 12 carbon atoms.
