A toner container includes: a container body with a toner discharge aperture; and a toner container supporting structure which has a toner feed aperture and supports the container body in a rotatable manner, and discharges toner while rotating the container body. A toner feed recess 303 that is intended into the interior of the toner container is formed on the outer periphery of the container body so as to temporarily reserve the discharged toner. The toner feed recess is formed on the upstream side of the toner discharge aperture. The toner feed recess is formed so that its sectional opening area perpendicular to the rotational direction of the container body decreases from the downstream side to the upstream side of the rotational direction.
