A characterization of lattices with replaceable irredundant decompositions is given in the following six classes: the class of upper and lower continuous lattices; the class of upper continuous completely join-semidistributive lattices; the class of upper semimodular lower continuous lattices; the class of upper semimodular completely joinsemidistributive lattices; the class of consistent lower continuous lattices; the class of consistent completely join-semidistributive lattices.
