We present a map of a 3′ × 3′ section of the southwest arm of M31 in the CO(J=2 → 1) transition. We have detected emission in 25 positions out of 31 observed in a field centered at (—42.5′, +7.5) (major axis, minor axis). The map is sampled at intervals of one beamwidth, with an angular resolution of 30″ or 100 × 460 pc.
