Let the scope oft he accuracy property ofan unreliable failure detector be the minimum number (k) ofpro cesses that may not erroneously suspect a correct process to have crashed. Classical failure detectors implicitly consider a scope equal to n (the total number ofp rocesses). This paper investigates accuracy properties with limited scope, thereby giving rise to the Sk and {white diamond suit} Sk classes off ailure detectors. A reduction protocol transforming any failure detector belonging to Sk (resp. {white diamond suit} Sk) into a failure detector (without limited scope) of the class S (resp. {white diamond suit}S) is given. This reduction protocol requires f
