Abstract Similarity in the electron diffraction patterns of the Cd_5.7Yb icosahedral quasicrystal and its cubic approximant Cd₆Yb crystal is studied in detail by using transmission electron microscopy. The icosahedral twofold axes are parallel to the cubic <1ττ²> (τ=1.618...) or < 001> directions, the icosahedral pseudo-twofold axes are parallel to the cubic <15 21 25> directions, the icosahedral threefold axes are parallel to the cubic <111> and the icosahedral fivefold are parallel to the cubic <0.1τ> directions. Based on those observations a general stereographic projection is given to illustrate the exact orientation relationship.
