A negatively chargeable toner containing: resin particles containing a
colorant; and an external additive which coats the surface of the resin
particles, wherein the external additive contains; first silica particles
having a number mean primary particle size of 5 to 20 nm and second
silica particles having a number mean primary particle size of 30 to 50
nm; surface-modified silica particles which are surface modified by wet
treatment using an oxide or hydroxide of at least one metal selected from
the group consisting of titanium, tin, zirconium and aluminum, and are
further subjected to hydrophobic treatment; and aluminum oxide-silicon
dioxide composite oxide particles obtained by flame hydrolysis and
