A phosphor, which is represented by the general formula containing M, Ce, Pr, Si, and N, is provided. M is at least one element selected from the group consisting of La, Y, Tb and Lu. A molar ratio of M is greater than 2.0 and smaller than 3.5. A molar ratio of Ce is greater than 0 and smaller than 1.0. A molar ratio of Pr is greater than 0 and smaller than 0.05. A molar ratio of N is greater than 10 and smaller than 12, under the condition that a molar ratio of Si is set to 6. The phosphor further contains 10 to 10,000 ppm of fluorine.
