[For the entire collection see Zbl 0745.00034.] A function is essential if it depends on at least two variables. A clone is essential if it contains at least one essential function. A clone is essentially minimal if it is minimal among all essential clones and it is not a minimal clone. In other words, a clone is essentially minimal if it contains an essential function, no proper subclone of it contains an essential function and it also contains at least one non-trivial unary function. For an explicitly defined binary function \(f\) on the set of integers it is proved that the clone generated by \(f\) is essentially minimal and contains countably many binary essential functions.
