The magnetic toner contains magnetic toner particles containing a binder resin and a magnetic body, and inorganic fine particles present on the surface of the magnetic toner particles, wherein the inorganic fine particles present on the surface of the magnetic toner particles comprise metal oxide fine particles, wherein the metal oxide fine particles containing silica fine particles, and optionally containing titania fine particles and alumina fine particles, and a content of the silica fine particles being at least 85 mass % with respect to a total mass of the silica fine particles, the titania fine particles and the alumina fine particles. In addition, the coverage ratio of the magnetic toner particle surface by the inorganic fine particles resides in a prescribed range for this magnetic toner; the binder resin is a styrene resin; the weight-average molecular weight and radius of gyration of the magnetic toner reside in a prescribed relationship; and the viscosity of the magnetic toner at 110° C. resides in a prescribed range. |
