PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a silver salt photothermographic dry imaging material excellent in storage stability while having high sensitivity and low fog and excellent also in silver image stability after heat development and to provide an image recording method therefor and an image forming method therefor. SOLUTION: In the silver salt photothermographic dry imaging material comprising a photosensitive emulsion comprising non-photosensitive silver aliphatic-carboxylate grains and photosensitive silver halide grains, a silver ion reducing agent and a binder, the photosensitive silver halide grains form a latent image capable of functioning as a development reaction catalyst on the surfaces of the silver halide grains in exposure before heat development, and in exposure after a heat developing process, latent image formation on the surfaces of the silver halide grains is suppressed because more latent images are formed in the interiors of the silver halide grains than on the surfaces.
