An optical information recording medium of the present invention includes at least a recording layer (4) that allows information to be recorded thereon and/or reproduced therefrom by being irradiated with a laser beam, and a transmittance adjusting layer (7) in this order from an incident side of the laser beam (30). In the optical information recording medium of the present invention, the transmittance adjusting layer (7) contains Bi, Ti, and O and with a composition of Bi, Ti, and O contained in the transmittance adjusting layer (7) being denoted as BixTiyOz, in atomic number ratio, x, y, and z satisfy 0.07@x@0.35, 0.07@y@0.28, 0.56@z@0.70, and x+y+z=1. Or the transmittance adjusting layer (7) contains Bi2O3 and TiO2, and with a composition of Bi2O3 and TiO2 contained in the transmittance adjusting layer (7) being denoted as (Bi2O3)alpha(TiO2)beta, in molar ratio, alpha and beta satisfy 0.2@alpha@0.7, 0.3@beta@0.8, and alpha+beta=1.
