Molecular line and optical observations have been carried out for the Herbig Be/Ae star MWC 1080 as well as its nearby nebulosity and molecular cloud. This paper presents the results of molecular-line mapping observations. An area of 2 x 2 arcmin around the star was mapped for the J = 1-0 transitions of CO, (C-13)O, and CS with a grid spacings of 15 arcsec. The CO observations have revealed the bipolar nature of molecular outflow; (C-13)O and CS observations have disclosed a disk structure with a cavity or face-on doughnut-like structure. The diameters of the disk and the cavity are about 90 arcsec and 30 arcsec, respectively. The physical parameters of bipolar flow are also derived.
