   * **Similarity threshold**: the maximum S similarity allowed in the diverse set. It is guaranteed that none of the resulting molecules are more similar than S.   * **Similarity threshold**: the maximum S similarity allowed in the diverse set.

-  * **Number of most diverse molecules**: the maximum N number of diverse molecules to be selected. The diversity selection algorithm will select the most diverse N molecules, unless the maximum allowed similarity is reached first.+  * **Max number of most diverse molecules**: the maximum N number of diverse molecules to be selected.

 If you do not limit the selection, the full collection will be returned ordered by diversity. This means that the top N molecules in the resulting collection will be the most diverse N molecules. The //maximum similarity// found at the Nth molecule in the results will refer to the minimum diversity of the first N molecules (none of them are more similar than that value). If you do not limit the selection, the full collection will be returned ordered by diversity.
