It is typically silty clay loam or silty clay, but in some pedons it is clay loam. Thin strata of silt, silt loam, clay, loamy fine sand, or fine sand are common in this horizon. These are the Alida , Ashippun , Glenhall , Kasson , Kibbie , Lineville , Locke , Lourdes , Macomb , Montmorenci , Newry , Oran , and Symco series in the same family and the Aztalan , Hebron , Metamora , Symerton , and Teasdale series. Kibbie soils have a higher percentage of fine and very fine sand and a lower percentage of medium and coarse sand in the upper part of the solum and do not have the underlying moderately fine or fine textured material. Symco soils contain more clay in the lower part of the solum and in the substratum.
Oran soils are more acid in the control section.
Aztalan and Symerton soils have mollic epipedons. Hebron soils typically have surface horizons with higher color values and are without low chroma mottles in the upper 10 inches of the argillic horizons. Metamora soils have lower chromas between depths of 10 and 30 inches. Mosel soils typically are on intermediate positions between the more sloping rises and flatter bottoms in glacio-fluvial valleys, glacial lake basins, or drainageways of ground moraines. The topography is nearly level or gently undulating with slopes normally less than 3 percent.
