We present spatially resolved observations of CO and HCN mm-wave emission from Neptune's stratosphere, obtained with the Submillimeter Array. The imaged data show that CO emission is spatially uniform, while HCN exhibits decreased emission near the southern pole. Maps of the CO absorption in the upper troposphere were also obtained simultaneously. The interpretation of the mixing ratios horizontal and vertical (for CO) distribution can bring clues on the respective sources of both species.
