We report angle-resolved photoemission results on Bi{sub 2}Sr{sub 2}Ca{sub 1{minus}{ital x}}Dy{sub {ital x}}Cu{sub 2}O{sub 8+{delta}} and oxygen depleted Bi{sub 2}Sr{sub 2}CaCu{sub 2}O{sub 8+{delta}} investigating the electronic structure changes above {ital T}{sub {ital c}} in materials with hole doping levels ranging from insulating to slightly overdoped. Near optimal hole doping, the Fermi surface is large and consistent with band calculations. In underdoped samples with {ital T}{sub {ital c}} of 60{endash}70 K, portions of this Fermi surface are not seen. This change is related to the opening of an energy gap near ({pi},0) above {ital T}{sub {ital c}}. {copyright} {ital 1996 The American Physical Society.}
