Forty soil profiles in the hilly region of Xuan Lang Guang,Anhui Province were identified and classified according to the keys to the Chinese Soil Taxonomy(CST)(the 3rd edition).The placement of 11 taxa,formerly sorted on the sub-group level of the Chinese Soil Genetic Classification System(CSGC),in CST was elucidated in the paper.All these soils studieds are classified into 5 CST Orders:Anthrosols,Ferrosols,Argosols,Cambosols and Primosols,5 CST Suborders:Stagnic Anthrosols,Udic Ferrosols,Udic Argosols,Udic Cambosols and Orthic Primosols,15 CST Group and 23 CST Subgroups.The correlation of Soil taxa between CSGC and CST was so complicated that there is almost no one-to-one correlation of soil taxa.The taxonomic soil classification of the hilly region of Xuan Lang Guang was proposed in the paper.And correlation of taxa between CSGC and CST was also discussed.The results of the study are of high reference value to proper correlation of soil taxa between CSGC and CST and development of CST.
