The structures of the perovskites Nd{sub 0.7}Ca{sub 0.30-x}Sr{sub x}MnO{sub 3} have been determined at 293 and 1.7 K for x = 0, 0.08, and 0.3. All these manganites, except the low-temperature form of Nd{sub 0.7}Ca{sub 0.3}MnO{sub 3} (x=0), exhibit the classical orthorhombic Pnma (GdFeO{sub 3}) structure. For Nd{sub 0.7}Ca{sub 0.3}MnO{sub 3}, a monoclinic structure, involving a new kind of charge ordering, is observed at 1.7 K. The importance of this phenomenon for the understanding of the CMR properties of these materials is emphasized.
