1. An electrochromic display device comprising a pair of electrodes which are disposed with a specified space therebetween, at least one of said electrodes being transparent, and a non-aqueous electrolytic solution filled in the space and comprised of a styryl-like compound and a supporting electrolyte dissolved in a solvent, said styryl-like compound being represented by the formula:

  • ##STR37## in which Q represents a benzene ring with or without substituents and/or a condensed ring, R1 and R2 independently represent a lower alkyl group, a hydroxyalkyl group or an alkoxyalkyl group, R3 represents hydrogen, an alkyl group, an alkoxy group, a halogen, a nitrile group, an aromatic group or a phenoxy group, Y represents oxygen or sulfur, Z represents an alkylene group of 2 to 4 carbon atoms, with or without an alkyl substituents, required to complete a ring structure together with ##STR38## and A represents a residue resulting from a condensation reaction of the methyl group or methylene group in the 2-position of a precursor indoline derivative of the formula;

    ##STR39## where , R1, R2, R3, Y and Z have the same meanings as defined above, respectively, with a member selected from the group consisting of aromatic aldehydes, heterocyclic alcehydes, aromatic nitroso compounds and heterocyclic nitroso compounds.
