de Haas-van Alphen (dHvA) oscillations have been observed in ${\mathrm{Nb}}_{3}$Sn in the (110) plane and in ${\mathrm{V}}_{3}$Si at two orientations using single crystals of high resistance ratio and magnetic fields in excess of ${H}_{c2}$. The dHvA frequency data for ${\mathrm{Nb}}_{3}$Sn can be interpreted as a series of nested ellipsoids centered at $M$, as suggested by a recent high-precision calculation of the ${\mathrm{Nb}}_{3}$Sn Fermi surface.
