Eluviated Dystric Brunisol (E.DYB)

Common horizon sequence: LFH, Ae or Aej, Bm or Bfj, C

These soils have the general properties specified for soils of the Brunisolic order and the Dystric Brunisol great group. They differ from Orthic Dystric Brunisols by having an eluvial horizon, Ae or Aej, at least 2 cm thick. The underlying horizon is commonly a Bfj, but it may be a Btj or a Bm. Otherwise, they have the diagnostic properties of Orthic Dystric Brunisols.

Note: Diagnostic horizons are underlined.
