We consider varieties with m prime to p. We show that the subvariety lattice of distributive and has descending chain condition and that is its only just non-Cross subvariety. When m is prime we determine the join-irreducible subvarieties of . The method involves fairly detailed description of the structure of non-nilpotent critical groups in .
