Abstract

Abstract A silver halide photographic emulsion having a high spectral-sensitivity in a red-color wavelength range, especially within a wavelength range of from 600 nm to 690 nm, is disclosed, which contains one or more sensitizing dyes represented by formula (I) ##STR1## wherein R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , and R 4 each represents an alkyl group, a substituted alkyl group, or an alkenyl group; V 1 , V 2 , V 3 , and V 4 each represents a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, an alkyl group, an alkoxy group, an acyl group, an acyloxy group, an alkoxycarbonyl group, a carboxyl group, an alkoxysulfonyl group, a cyano group, or a trifluoromethyl group; Q represents an alkyl group or an aralkyl group; X.sup.⊖ represents an anion; and m is 1 or 2, provided that when the dye forms an internal salt, m is 1.
