In this paper we study algebraic properties of order-primal algebras for connected ordered sets (A; <=). Such order-primal algebras are constantive, simple and have no non-identical automorphisms. We show that in this case F-A cannot have only unary fundamental operations or only one at least binary fundamental operation. We prove several properties of the varieties and the quasi-varieties generated by constantive and simple algebras and apply these properties to order-primal algebras. Further, we use the properties of order-primal algebras to formulate new primality criteria for finite algebras}, language = {en} }
