Honeoye, Lansing, and Mohawk soils and their wetter associates formed in till that lacks the distinct lithologic discontinuity. The wetter Ilion and drier Nunda soils are members of a drainage sequence on similar till. Somewhat poorly drained. The potential for surface runoff ranges from very low to high. Permeability is moderate in the upper material and slow or very slow below.
Native vegetation is forest of sugar maple, white ash, red oak and black cherry.
Most areas have been cleared. Some are used for growing pasture and crops in support of dairying. Large acreages are in brush, reverting to woodland. The soil is moderately extensive. Schuyler County, New York, 1939.
