(Quincy series)

This soil formed in a fine-grained eolian sand. The C2 horizon contains lenses of very fine sand within the fine sand, reflecting the tendency of wind-blown materials to be sorted in transit. The soil contains very little clay and organic matter, which serve as particle binding agents. As a result, the soil is structureless and loose.
