Reaction is very strongly acid or strongly acid in the upper part, very strongly acid to moderately acid in the middle part, and very strongly acid to neutral in the lower part. There are no competing series. Similar soils are Ashford , Beaumont , Garner , and Vamont series. Garner soils are moderately well drained and do not have aquic conditions in mosts years. Vamont soils are somewhat poorly drained and do not have aquic conditions in the upper part in most years.
Bevil soils are on broad, nearly level forested terraces.
Surfaces are plane or slightly concave and the gradient is less than 1 percent. They formed in clayey flood basin deposits on the Beaumont Formation of Pleistocene age. F. Mean annual rainfall ranges from 50 to 60 inches. Frost free days range from 250 to 265 and elevation ranges from 25 to 50 feet above sea level. Thornthwaite P-E index ranges from 68 to 80.
