Chemical abundances in cold, dark interstellar clouds.
The Sun may well have formed in the type of interstellar cloud currently referred to as a cold, dark cloud.  We present current tabulations of the totality of known interstellar molecules and of the subset which have been identified in cold clouds.  Molecular abundances are given for two such clouds which show interesting chemical differences in spite of strong physical similarities, Taurus Molecular Cloud 1 (TMC-1) and Lynd's 134N (L134N, also referred to as L183).  These regions may be at different evolutionary stages.
