The top 20 inches of the argillic horizon averages between 18 to 27 percent clay. Coarse fragments average from 0 to 15 percent in horizons above a depth of 20 inches, from 5 to 50 percent in the solum between 20 to 40 inches, and 15 to 75 percent in the C horizon. Texture is loam or silt loam. The E horizon below an A horizon or, if present, below an Ap horizon is 3 to 10 inches thick. The BEg horizon color range is similar to that of Btg horizons.
Texture is loam or sandy loam and gravelly analogues.
The Btg horizons have hues of 10YR to 5Y, values of 4 to 6, and chroma of 0 to 2. Mottles with chroma of 3 to 8 comprise 10 to 40 percent of the matrix. Texture is loam, sandy clay loam, light clay loam, and gravelly analogues of these textures. Thin subhorizons of sandy loam, silt loam, or silty clay loam are within the range. The structure is moderate or weak fine to coarse subangular blocky.
