Abstract: A magnetic toner is provided, which has a magnetic toner particle containing a binder resin, a wax, and a magnetic body, wherein, when Dn is a number-average particle diameter of the toner, CV1 is coefficient of variation of a brightness variance value of the toner in a particle diameter range of Dn?0.500 to +0.500, and CV2 is coefficient of variation of a brightness variance value of the toner in a particle diameter range of Dn?1.500 to ?0.500, a relationship CV2/CV1 1.00 is satisfied; an average brightness of the toner in the range of Dn?0.500 to +0.500 is 30.0 to 60.0; and when, in a cross section of the toner observed using a transmission electron microscope, which is divided with a square grid having a side of 0.8 ?m, coefficient of variation CV3 of an occupied area percentage for the magnetic body is 40.0 to 80.0%.
