For a class K of structures and A K let C o n * ( A ) resp. C o n K ( A ) denote the lattices of * -congruences resp. K -congruences of A , cf. Weaver [25]. Let C o n * ( K ) : = I { C o n * ( A ) : A K } where I is the operator of forming isomorphic copies, and C o n r ( K ) : = I { C o n K ( A ) : A K } . For an ordered algebra A the lattice of order congruences of A is denoted by C o n < ( A ) , and let C o n < ( K ) : = I { C o n < ( A ) : A K } if K is a class of ordered algebras. The operators of forming subdirect squares and direct products are denoted by Q s and P , respectively. Let λ be a lattice identity and let Σ be a set of lattice identities. Let Σ c λ ( r ; Q s , P ) denote that for every class K of structures which is closed under Q s and P if Σ holds is C o n r ( K ) then so does λ . The consequence relations Σ c λ ( * ; Q s ) ,    Σ c λ ( ; Q s ) and Σ c λ ( H , S , P ) are defined analogously; the latter is the usual consequence relation in congruence varieties (cf. Jónsson [19]), so it will also be denoted simply by c . If Σ ¬ λ (in the class of all lattices) then the above-mentioned consequences are called nontrivial. The present paper shows that if Σ modularity and Σ c λ is a known result in the theory of congruence varieties then Σ c λ ( * ; Q s ) , Σ c λ ( ; Q s ) and Σ c λ ( r ; Q s , P ) as well. In most of these cases λ is a diamond identity in the sense of [3].

AB - For a class $K$ of structures and $A\in K$ let ${Con}^*(A)$ resp. ${Con}^{K}(A)$ denote the lattices of $*$-congruences resp. $K$-congruences of $A$, cf. Weaver [25]. Let ${Con}^*(K):=I\lbrace {Con}^*(A)\colon \ A \in K\rbrace $ where $I$ is the operator of forming isomorphic copies, and ${Con}^r(K):=I\lbrace {Con}^{K}(A)\colon \ A \in K\rbrace $. For an ordered algebra $A$ the lattice of order congruences of $A$ is denoted by ${Con}^{<}(A)$, and let ${Con}^{<}(K):=I\lbrace {Con}^{<}(A)\colon \ A \in K\rbrace $ if $K$ is a class of ordered algebras. The operators of forming subdirect squares and direct products are denoted by $Q^s$ and $P$, respectively. Let $\lambda $ be a lattice identity and let $\Sigma $ be a set of lattice identities. Let $\Sigma \mathrel {\models _c}\lambda \ (r;Q^s,P)$ denote that for every class $K$ of structures which is closed under $Q^s$ and $P$ if $\Sigma $ holds is ${Con}^r(K)$ then so does $\lambda $. The consequence relations $\Sigma \mathrel {\models _c}\lambda \ (*;Q^s)$,   $\Sigma \mathrel {\models _c}\lambda \ (\le ;Q^s)$ and $\Sigma \mathrel {\models _c}\lambda \ (H,S,P)$ are defined analogously; the latter is the usual consequence relation in congruence varieties (cf. Jónsson [19]), so it will also be denoted simply by $\mathrel {\models _c}$. If $\Sigma \lnot \models \lambda $ (in the class of all lattices) then the above-mentioned consequences are called nontrivial. The present paper shows that if $\Sigma \models $ modularity and $\Sigma \mathrel {\models _c}\lambda $ is a known result in the theory of congruence varieties then $\Sigma \mathrel {\models _c}\lambda \ (*; Q^s)$, $\Sigma \mathrel {\models _c}\lambda \ (\le ;Q^s)$ and $\Sigma \mathrel {\models _c}\lambda \ (r;Q^s,P)$ as well. In most of these cases $\lambda $ is a diamond identity in the sense of [3].
