Abstract

This light flux control member comprises: two entry surfaces disposed on two sides of a virtual plane serving as a boundary and containing the optical axis of the light-emitting element; a first protruding strip disposed between the two entry surfaces and along the virtual plane, into which light that has exited the light-emitting element enters; two total reflection surfaces, each formed at a position facing the light-emitting element with one of the entry surfaces sandwiched therebetween; two light-guide portions disposed at opposite positions with the first protruding strip sandwiched therebetween; and an exit surface formed on the external surface of each of the light-guide portions. A second light flux control member is disposed so as to cover the first protruding strip and includes a diffuse transmission portion whereby light that has entered and exited the first protruding strip is transmitted while being diffused.
