A light emitting module includes: a plurality of semiconductor light emitting elements; a substrate by which the arranged plurality of semiconductor light emitting elements are supported; and a plate-shaped light wavelength conversion component that is provided so as to face the light emitting surfaces of the plurality of semiconductor light emitting elements and that converts the wavelength of the light emitted by the semiconductor light emitting element. A phosphor layer has a shielding portion formed in the boundary between respective areas facing the respective light emitting surfaces of the adjacent semiconductor light emitting elements.
