Abstract: The main problem of clone theory is to describe the clone lattice for a given basic set. For a two-element basic set this was resolved by E.L. Post, but for at least three-element basic set the full structure of the lattice is still unknown, and the complete description in general is considered to be hopeless. Therefore, it is studied by its substructures and its approximations. One of the possible directions is to examine k-ary parts of the clones and their mutual inclusions. In this paper we study k-ary parts of maximal clones, for kgeq2, building on the already known results for their unary parts. It turns out that the poset of k-ary parts of maximal clones defined by central relations contains long chains.
