Abstract. A quasivariety of algebras of finite type is Q-universal if its lattice of subquasivarieties has, as a homomorphic image of a sublattice, the lattice of subquasivarieties of any quasivariety of algebras of finite type. A sufficient condition for a quasivariety to be Q-universal is given, thereby adding, amongst others, the quasivarieties of de Morgan algebras, Kleene algebras, distributive p-algebras, distributive double p-algebras, Heyting algebras, double Heyting algebras, lattices containing the modular lattice A/33 , A/T-algebras, and commutative rings with unity to the known Q-universal quasivarieties.
