For N any member of a large class of finite abelian right centralizer near-rings, the subring of the ring End(N) of endomorphisms of (N, +) generated by the set of right multiplication maps on N is explicitly described as a generalized blocked triangular matrix ring, which in some cases turns out to be a structural matrix ring.
