This paper shows basic properties of covariety lattices. Such lattices are shown to be infinitely distributive. The covariety lattice L_CV(K) of subcovarieties of a covariety K of F-coalgebras, where F:Set → Set preserves arbitrary intersections is isomorphic to the lattice of subcoalgebras of a P_κ-coalgebra for some cardinal κ. A full description of the covariety lattice of Id-coalgebras is given. For any topology τ there exist a bounded functor F:Set → Set and a covariety K of F-coalgebras, such that L_CV(K) is isomorphic to the lattice (τ,∪,∩) of open sets of τ.
