We have undertaken the investigation of ion acoustic solitary waves in both weakly and strongly quantized degenerate magnetoplasmas. It is seen that a singular point clearly demarcates the regions of weak and strong quantization due to the ambient magnetic field. The effect of the magnetic field is taken into account via the parameter  η{sub 0}=ℏω{sub ce}/ε{sub Fe} and the Mach number, and their effect on the formation of solitary structures is investigated in both cases and some results are presented graphically.
