Abstract.In this article we study the operator

\begin{displaymath}B_{r}=P_{1}^{\prime}Q_{r}^{\prime\prime}\oplus
P_{2}^{\prime}...
...\prime}\oplus\cdots\oplus
P_{r}^{\prime}Q_{1}^{\prime\prime}\,,\end{displaymath}

where $P_i$, $Q_j$ are univariate Birkhoff interpolation projectors with two nodes (see [#!ag!#]) and $P_{i}^{\prime}$, $Q_{j}^{\prime\prime}$ are the corresponding parametric extensions (see [#!desh!#]). The univariate projectors $P_i$, $Q_j$ are chosen so that the bivariate projectors $P_{i}^{\prime}$, $Q_{j}^{\prime\prime}$ form the chains in a lattice of projectors, i.e.

\begin{displaymath}P'_1\le \dots \le P'_r,\quad
Q''_1\le\dots \le Q''_r.\end{displaymath}

We give the range space, the interpolation properties and the remainder term for this operator. The operator $B_r$ interpolates some partial derivatives of a function on the vertices of the square. Some comparations about approximation order and information used with tensor product operator are given.
