(57) A silver halide color photographic material having at least one silver halide emulsion
layer on a support,. wherein said emulsion layer contains a development inhibitor-releasing
coupler represented by following formula (I);
 wherein R, represents a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, an alkyl group, an aryl group,
a heterocyclic group, a cyano group, a hydroxy group, a nitro group, a carboxy group,
an amino group, an alkoxy group, an aryloxy group, an acylamino group, an alkylamino
group, an anilino group, a ureido group, a sulfamoylamino group, an alkylthio group,
an arylthio group, an alkoxycarbonylamino group, a sulfonamido group, a carbamoyl
group, a sulfamoyl group, a sulfonyl group, an alkoxycarbonyl group, a heterocyclic
oxy group, an azo group, an acyloxy group, a carbamoyloxy group, a silyloxy group,
an aryloxycarbonylamino group, an imido group, a heterocyclic thio group, a sulfonyl
group, a phosphinyl group, an aryloxycarbonyl group, an aryl group, or an azolyl and
when R1 is a divalent group, the coupler may form a bispcompound at the divalent group; Z,
and Z2 each represents a nitrogen atom or = C-R2 (wherein R2 has the same meaning as Ri) and when Z1 and Z2 are both
 two R2s may be the same or different; X represents

 or
 (wherein * represents a group bonding to the left side of X; ** represents a group
bonding to the right side of X; R31 and R32 have the same meaning as Ri; and R33 represents an alkyl group, an aryl group, an acyl group, an alkoxycarbonyl group,
a carbamoyl group, a sulfonyl group, or a sulfamoyl group); L represents a group of
cleaving the bond of the right side [ the bond to (B)m] after cleaving the left side of L; B represents a group of cleaving the bond at the
right side of B by reacting with the oxidation product of a color developing agent;
DI represents a development inhibitor; m and n each represents 0 or 1 with the exclusion
that m and n are simultaneously 0; and p represents 1 or 2 and when p is 2, two [(L)m-(B)n]s maybe the same or different.
