Abstract

An electrostatic latent image developing toner includes a plurality of toner particles each including a toner core and a shell layer covering a surface of the toner core. The shell layer contains a hydrophobic thermoplastic resin and a positively chargeable hydrophilic water-insoluble resin. An existing amount A of alkali metal elements present in a surface layer of the shell layer measured by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and an existing amount B of alkali metal elements present in a toner particle as a whole measured by fluorescent X-ray analysis satisfy expressions (a) and (b) shown below A≤300 ppm  (a)0.5≤A/B<1.0  (b).
