The quadrupole moments for variety of configurations, involving the 9/2{sup +}[404](g{sub 9/2}) proton, 1/2{sup +}[660](i{sub 13/2}) and 1/2{sup -}[541](f{sub 7/2},h{sub 9/2}) neutron orbitals, were measured using the Doppler-shift attenuation method in a wide range of nuclei in the mass{approx}130 region. While the involvement of the first two orbitals leads to quadrupole deformations that are comparable to those observed for the so-called superdeformed bands in this mass region, the {beta}{sub 2} values for structures that include the 1/2{sup -}[541] neutron are found to lie intermediate between those observed for normally deformed and highly deformed bands.
