Nonlinear ion acoustic waves in the magnetized dusty plasma in the presence of superthermal electron have been studied. We have used the reductive perturbation method to derive a Kadomtsev-Petviashili equation for dust ion acoustic waves in a magnetized dusty plasma with q-nonextensive velocity distributed electrons. By applying the bifurcation theory of planar dynamical systems to this equation, the existence of solitary wave solutions and periodic travelling wave solutions is proved. Two exact solutions of the above waves are obtained.
