Large-scale CO observations with the millimeter/submillimeter telescope NANTEN toward a whole FIR loop-like structure whose angular extent is ~20° × 20° around (l, b) ~(109°, − 45°) in Pegasus have been carried out in the 12CO (J = 1 − 0) at 4′ – 8′ grid spacing and the 12CO emitting region in the 13CO (J=1–0) at 2′ grid spacing. The diameter corresponds to ~25 pc at a distance of 100 pc, adopted from that of the star HD886(B2IV) near the center of the loop.
