N2  - We suggest and give some evidence that as an HII region expands and the O stars evolve into B giants, remains of the molecular clouds first appear as bright-rimmed clouds, then as cometary globules and finally as small clouds which are visible by the reflected light from the B giants. We propose to call the last of these 'reflection clouds' and all three categories collectively 'remnant clouds'. A list is presented of about 80 objects of these remnant clouds in the Ori OB 1 association. In the Belt region there is a beautiful spatial sequence from bright-rimmed clouds through cometary globules to re°ection clouds. We suspect that retarded star formation in remnant clouds can explain the presence of so-called dispersed T Tau stars in the peripheries of OB associations.
