A substrate (11) includes an inflow-side cell (21), an outflow-side cell (22), and a porous, gas-permeable partition wall (23) that separates the inflow-side cell (21) and the outflow-side cell (22) from each other, and also includes a first catalyst portion (14) that is provided on a side of the partition wall (23) that faces the inflow-side cell (21) at least at a portion in upstream side in an exhaust gas flow direction, and a second catalyst portion (15) that is provided on a side of the partition wall that faces the outflow-side cell at least at a portion in downstream side. With respect to a pore volume of pores with a pore size of 10 to 18 μm, when a measured value of the pore volume in the first catalyst portion (14) and the partition wall (23) within a region where the first catalyst portion (14) is provided is defined as a first pore volume, and a measured value of the pore volume in the second catalyst portion (15) and the partition wall (23) within a region where the second catalyst portion (15) is provided is defined as a second pore volume, the first pore volume is greater than the second pore volume. A catalytically active component contained in the first catalyst portion (14) and a catalytically active component contained in the second catalyst portion (15) are of different types.
