Features of modulated structures in Bi{sub 2}Sr{sub 2}Ca{sub 1{minus}{ital x}}Y{sub {ital x}}Cu{sub 2}O{sub {ital y}} have been investigated by means of electron microscopy. In addition to two one-dimensional modulated structures with different periods, a new structure modulated along the {ital a} and {ital b} axes is found in 0.8{le}{ital x}{le}1.0. A high-resolution electron micrograph shows that the new structure is characterized by the periodic array of wavy stripes along the {ital b} axis.
