The wavelength conversion member includes a plurality of fluorescent members that absorb the excitation light and emit fluorescent light having a peak wavelength different from the peak wavelength of the excitation light. The wavelength conversion member has a surface irradiated with excitation light that faces an excitation light emitting surface of the excitation light source. The optical axis passes the center of the surface irradiated with excitation light. The plurality of fluorescent members are arranged in a divisional manner at such proportions that a circumferential area ratio, which is defined as the ratio of area occupied by each of the fluorescent members in a concentric annular region having a center located at the center of the surface irradiated with excitation light on the surface irradiated with excitation light of the wavelength conversion member, is substantially constant irrespective of the radius of the concentric annular region.
