Note:The Forgotten Quadrant Survey (FQS) is an ESO large project that used the 12m antenna of the Arizona Radio Observatory to map the Galactic plane in the range 220°<l<240° and -2.5°<b<0°, both in 12CO(1-0) and 13CO(1-0), at a spectral resolution of 0.65km/s and 0.26km/s.
A catalogue of N=263 molecular clouds is published as part of the first data release.
