We consider a hierarchy of models that can be obtained from the general Nyzhnyk system by imposing conditions on parameters, introducing potentials or pseudopotentials, performing limiting processes with respect to a scaling parameter, applying differential substitutions, and interpreting parts of independent and/or dependent variables as complex or real. Therefore, among the Nyzhnyk models, one can distinguish between symmetric and asymmetric, dispersive and dispersion\-less, standard and modified, as well as real, complex, mixed, and specific models. One can also distinguish single partial differential equations or systems of such equations, as well as linear or nonlinear Lax representations in the dispersive or dispersionless cases, respectively. For each specified model, we compute the maximal Lie invariance pseudoalgebra and, in the symmetric case, find the point- and contact-symmetry pseudogroups using the megaideal-based version of the algebraic method. It is shown that relations between these pseudoalgebras and between these pseudogroups are induced by relations between the corresponding models. Defining (finite-dimensional) subalgebras are singled out in all these pseudoalgebras in the symmetric and specific cases. Based on the established correspondences between the dispersionless and dispersive models, we completely classify one- and two-dimensional subalgebras of the maximal Lie invariance pseudoalgebra of the (dispersive symmetric potential) Nyzhnyk equation and one-dimensional subalgebras of the maximal Lie invariance pseudoalgebra of its linear Lax representation.
