A superdeformed band has been found in the [sup 154]Dy ([ital N]=88) nucleus. The dynamic moment of inertia is identical to that of the yrast superdeformed band of [sup 152]Dy and the transition energies are similar to those of an excited superdeformed band in [sup 153]Dy. It is proposed that the two valence neutrons above the [ital N]=86 shell gap occupy the deformation-driving [514]9/2 orbital.
