To provide a silver halide photographic material, which does not cause drying spots, which can obtain a pure black tone from a silver tone, and which can be ultra-rapidly processed, and to provide a treating method therefor.

(1) A silver halide photographic material at least composed of a silver halide emulsion layer containing planar silver halide particles having an aspect ratio from 3 to 20, and formed on a substrate, and a topmost layer, comprises a hydrophilic colloid layer laid between the emulsion layer and the topmost layer and containing an oil group material. Further, the photographic sensitive layer is less than 0.5. (2) The weight ratio between gelatin and an oil group in the hydrophilic colloid layer is set to be in a range of 1.0 to 0.2.
