The photon distribution function of a discrete series of excitations of squeezed coherent states is given explicitly in terms of Hermite polynomials of two variables. The Wigner and the coherent-state quasiprobabilities are also presented in closed form through the Hermite polynomials and their limiting cases. Expectation values of photon numbers and their dispersion are calculated. Some three-dimensional plots of photon distributions for different squeezing parameters demonstrating oscillatory behaviour are given.
