A molecular survey of L 1495, a nearby dark cloud in Taurus, has been carried out in the J = 1-0 transition of (C-12)O, (C-13)O, and C(O-18) with the University of Cologne 3-m telescope on Gornergrat. The analysis of the data shows that L 1495 can be divided into three major fragments and three smaller parts. Depending on the calculation method, the mass of the whole 3 deg-squared region is estimated to range between 1500 and 2700 solar masses. The average density is 550/cu cm. It is suspected that the fragments as well as the whole cloud are gravitationally bound.
