Abstract
Corresponding to each ordered set there is a variety, determined up to equivalence, generated by an algebra whose term operations are all the monotone operations on the ordered set. We produce several characterisations of the finite bounded ordered sets for which the corresponding variety is congruence-distributive. In particular, we find that congruence-distributivity, congruence-modularity, and residual smallness are equivalent for these varieties.
