To provide an electrophotographic photoreceptor having a better wear resistance than conventional ones.

In the electrophotographic photoreceptor having a photosensitive layer on an electrically conductive substrate, a polycarbonate having 0.3-2.0 dl/g intrinsic viscosity derived from compounds of formulae (A), (B) and (C) is used as the binder resin of the photosensitive layer. The molar ratio of the compound of the formula (A) to the compound of the formula (B) is (70:30) to (5:95) and the molar ratio of the compound of the formula (C) to the compounds of the formulae (A) and (B) is (50:50) to (0:100).
