Abstract
In V. D. Belousov’s papers, some properties of parastrophies were studied and some relations between parastrophies of a given quasigroup were obtained. Also some invariants of a parastrophy were found. This article continues our paper with V. V. Gushan, in which minimal sets of parastrophy systems for quasigroups of order 6 were obtained and some questions about orthogonality of parastrophies of a given quasigroup were studied as well.
