An algebra of type τ is said to be locally finite if all its finitely generated subalgebras are finite. A class K of algebras of type τ is called locally finite if all its elements are locally finite. It is well-known (see [2]) that a variety of algebras of the same type τ is locally finite iff all its finitely generated free algebras are finite. A variety V is finitely based if it admits a finite basis of identities, i.e. if there is a finite set σ of identities such that V = ModΣ, the class of all algebras of type τ which satisfy all identities from Σ. Every variety which is generated by a finite algebra is locally finite. But there are finite algebras which are not finitely based. For semigroup varieties, Perkins proved that the variety generated by the five-element Brandt-semigroup B¹=0000,1000,0100,0010,0001 is not finitely based ([9], [10]). An identity s ≈ t is called a hyperidentity of a variety V if whenever the operation symbols occurring in s and in t, respectively, are replaced by any terms of V of the appropriate arity, the identity which results, holds in V. A variety V is called solid if every identity of V also holds as a hyperidentity in V. If we apply only substitutions from a set M we speak of M-hyperidentities and M-solid varieties. In this paper we use the theory of M-solid varieties to prove that a type (2) M-solid variety of the form V=HMModF(x,F(x,x))F(F(x,x),x), which consists precisely of all algebras which satisfy the associative law as an M -hyperidentity is locally finite iff the hypersubstitution which maps F to the word x₁x₂x₁ or to the word x₂x₁x₂ belongs to M and that V is finitely based if it is locally finite.
