Abstract: A lighting device 1 includes a circuit board that is long and flexible, light emitters mounted in a row on the circuit board, and an elongated cover. The cover includes (i) a translucent member that is made of translucent soft material and that covers the circuit board and the light emitters, and (ii) a phosphorescent member containing a phosphorescent material that is to be excited by light emitted by the light emitters. The phosphorescent member is arranged on a second area portion of the cover other than a first area portion of the cover that is located in an emission direction of light from each of the light emitters and a luminous intensity is equal to or greater than a standard luminous intensity in the emission direction.
