We have carried out a redshift survey of an IRAS flux-limited (f60 > 0.6) galaxy sample behind the southern Milky Way, 210° < l < 360° at |b| < 15°. The survey includes redshifts for 951 galaxies, ˜500 of which are new. Of these 951 galaxies, 462 are in the zone 5° The cone diagrams exhibiting the detailed distribution of IRAS galaxies in the region 210° < 1 < 360°, |b| < 15Xe0 shows two clusters in the Puppis region (l = 240°, b = -7° v = 2400 km s-1; 1 = 245°, b = -5° V = 7500 km s-1), the A3627 cluster (l = 325°, b = -7°; v = 450° km s-1), the S4 cluster (l=280°, b=7° v=5500 km s-1), and a possible void at l=245°, v=3000 km s-1. The region 270° < l < 350° is dominated by overdensity of galaxies representing the extension of the Hydra-Centaurus complex in the positive latitudes and the Pavo-Indus complex in the negative latitudes.
