      Let \(\mathfrak c\) denote the cardinality of the continuum. The \(n\)-ary fragment of a clone \(C\) on a set \(X\) is the set \(C\cap X^{X^n}\). It is proved that there exist \(2^{\mathfrak c}\) pairwise incomparable clones on \(\mathbb N\) containing all unary operations. Moreover, it is proved that for each positive integer \(n\) there exist \(2^{\mathfrak c}\) clones on \(\mathbb N\) with the same \(n\)-ary fragment and containing all unary operations.
