HD 94305 is found to be a double-lined WC6+O6-8 spectroscopic binary. The minimum masses of the components of this binary are 15 and 32 solar mass for the Wolf-Rayet and the O type components, respectively. The relatively high minimum mass for the WC6 component adds further evidence to the notion presented elsewhere by Niemela (1981) that the more massive WC6-8 stars cannot be descendants of the less massive WN3-5 stars.
