Abstract: The orbits of Weyl groups W(B(n)), W(C(n)) and W(D(n)) of the simple Lie algebras B(n), C(n) and D(n) are reduced to the union of the orbits of Weyl groups of the maximal reductive subalgebras of B(n), C(n) and D(n). Matrices transforming points of W(B(n)), W(C(n)) and W(D(n)) orbits into points of subalgebra orbits are listed for all cases n<=8 and for the infinite series of algebra-subalgebra pairs B(n) - B(n-1) x U(1), B(n) - D(n), B(n) - B(n-k) x D(k), B(n) - A(1), C(n) - C(n-k) x C(k), C(n) - A(n-1) x U(1), D(n) - A(n-1) x U(1), D(n) - D(n-1) x U(1), D(n) -B(n-1), D(n) - B(n-k-1) x B(k), D(n) -D(n-k) x D(k). Numerous special cases and examples are shown.
