Galactic H II regions between l = 305° and l = 312° are studied using classical and scanning Hα interferometric observations. The authors analyse the radio and Hα data of all the H II regions in this area together with their stellar environment. RCW 74 is found to be the brightest part of a wider Hα emission corresponding to the large radio complex at l = 305°, at a distance between 3.5 and 4 kpc. This emission is superimposed to a faint extended Hα emission including RCW 75 at a distance of 2 kpc. The other Hα emission regions of this sector of the galactic plane can be divided into the same two groups of distances corresponding to the Sagittarius-Carina arm and the Scutum-Crux arm. More distant radio sources belong to the outermost parts of these arms.
