Abstract:
We give a sufficient condition for a quasivariety $\mathbf{K}$, weaker than the one found earlier by A. V. Kravchenko, A. M. Nurakunov, and the author, which ensures that $\mathbf{K}$ contains continuum many subquasivarieties with no independent quasi-equational basis relative to $\mathbf{K}$. This condition holds, in particular, for any almost ${f}{f}$-universal quasivariety $\mathbf{K}$.
