Reaction ranges from very strongly acid through moderately acid. Some pedons have a thin E horizon just above the B horizon. The 2C or C horizon has hue of 7.5YR through 5Y, value of 4 or 5, and chroma of 2 through 6. Texture of the fine earth fraction is silt loam, very fine sandy loam, or loamy very fine sand above a depth of 40 inches, but ranges from fine sandy loam to very gravelly sand below 40 inches. Consistence ranges from loose to firm.
Reaction ranges from strongly acid through slightly alkaline.
These are the Bridgehampton , Hitchcock , and Poocham series. The Bridgehampton soils have bisequum horizons of E' and B'. The Hitchcock soils have a moderately slow or slow permeability in the substrata. The Poocham soils have a thinner solum. The Allard , Amboy , Belgrade , Canaseraga , Hamlin , Hartland , Riverhead , Scio ,and Williamson soils are similar soils in closely related families.
