We present $^{13}$CO ($J$= 1-0) and C$^{18}$O ($J$= 1-0) maps of the W 49 A molecular cloud complex observed at a resolution of 17$''$ (HPBW). Fourteen features (MHH-1 to MHH-14) were identified in the $^{13}$CO velocity channel maps, most of them distributed within an area of 6$'$ (20 pc) in diameter with their total mass amounting to 1.7 $\times$ 10$^{6}M_\odot$. The features have a three-dimens...
