Eram soils are on similar topography as Olpe soils but they formed in residuum weathered from shale. Dennis, Eram, and Summit soils are on areas below Olpe soils. Kenoma, and Lula soils are on smoother areas adjacent to and slightly below Olpe soils. All these associated soils have less than 15 percent coarse fragments by volume in their control section. Runoff is medium or rapid.
Permeability is slow.
Most is used for rangeland. Native vegetation is tall grass prairie. Many areas have been quarried and used as a source of gravel. The series is moderately extensive. Butler County, Kansas, 1970.
