fourths of the time. Crop residue and soil-improving
crops help to maintain organic matter content and
protect the soil from erosion. Seedbed preparation
should include bedding of the rows. Fertilizer and lime
should be added according to the needs of the crop.
Unless intensive management practices are used,
this soil is poorly suited to citrus. A carefully designed
water control system is required. Citrus trees should be
planted on beds, and a plant cover should be
maintained between the trees. Fertilizer and lime are
needed.
This soil is well suited to pastures of pangolagrass,
improved bahiagrass, and white clover. Water-control
measures are needed to remove excess surface water
after heavy rainfall. Fertilizer and lime are needed, and
grazing should be controlled to prevent overgrazing and
weakening of the plants.
Typically, the South Florida Flatwoods range site
includes areas of this soil. The dominant vegetation is
scattered pine trees with an understory of saw palmetto
and grass. If good grazing management practices are
used, this range site has the potential to produce
significant amounts of creeping bluestem, lopsided
indiangrass. chalky bluestem, and various panicums. If
range deterioration occurs, saw palmetto and pinel and
threeawn' are dominant.
The potential productivity for pine trees is moderately
high. The major concerns in management are seedling
mortality, plant competition, and the equipment use
limitation during periOds of heavy rainfall. South Florida
slash pine and slash pin~ are the be~t trees to plant.
This soil is severely limited as a site for urban
development because of the wetness. The high water
table interferes with proper functioning of septic tank
absorption fields. The absorption fields can be elevated
by adding fill material. To overcome the problems
caused by wetness on sites used for buildings or local
roads and streets, a drainage system can be installed to
lower the high water table or fill material can be added
to increase the effective depth to the high water table.
The wetness and the sandy surface are severe
limitations affecting recreational uses. A water-control
system is needed to keep the high water table below a
depth of 2.5 feet. Suitable topsoil or pavement can be
used to stabilize the surface in heavy traffic areas.

16-Urban land. This map unit consists of areas that
are more than 85 percent covered by buildings, streets,
houses, schools, shopping centers, and industrial
complexes. Urban land is mainly in larger towns and
fringe areas. Open areas include lawns and
playgrounds. Because soils in urban areas have been
reworked, they can no longer be recognized as a
natural soil. Fill material has been added in wet areas
to alleviate water problems, or soil material has been
excavated to blend with the surrounding landscape.
Neither a capability subclass nor a woodland
ordination symbol has been assigned to this map unit.
"Q-smyrna and Myakka fine sands. This map unit
consists of poorly drained soils in broad areas on
flatwoods. It is about 55 percent Smyrna soil and 40
percent Myakka soil, but the proportion varies in each
mapped area. Areas of each soil are large enough to be
mapped separately, but because of present and
predicted use, these soils were mapped as one unit.
Areas of these soils range from 10 to seve'ral hundred
acres. Slopes are smooth to concave and are 0 to 2
percent.
Typically, this Smyrna soil has a black fine sand
surface layer about 4 inches thick. The subsurface layer
is gray fine sand to a depth of about 12 inches. The
subsoil is dark brown and brown fine sand to a depth of'
about 25 inches, Below that is very pale brown fine
sand to a depth of about 42 inches and very dark brown
fine sand to a depth of about 48 inches. The underlying
material is brown and light brownish gray fine sand to a
depth of at least 80 inches.
Typically, this Myakka soil has a very dark gray fine
. sand surface layer about 7 inches thick. The subsurface
layer is gray fine sand to depth of about 25 inches. The
subsoil to a depth of about 36 inches isfine sand. It is
black in the upper part and dark brown in the lower
part. The underlying material is yellowish brown fine
sand to a depth of at least 80 inches.
The Smyrna and Myakka soils have a seasonal high
water table within 12 inches of the surface for 1 to 4

months inmost years. The available water capacity is
low. Permeability is moderate or moderately rapid in the
subsoil.
Included with these soils in mapping are small areas
of Basinger, Immokalee, Ona, and Pomona soils.
Pomona soils have a loamy subsoil. Basinger,
Immokalee, and Ona soils are similar to the Smyrna
and Myakka soils. The included soils make up 5 to 15
percent of the map unit.
The natural vegetation on Smyrna and Myakka soils
is mostly longleaf pine, slash pine, South Florida slash
pine, saw palmetto, running oak, gallberry, waxmyrtle,
huckleberry, pineland threeawn, and scattered
fetterbushlyonia. A few areas around large lakes are in
oak hammocks.
Wetness and droughtiness are severe limitations
affecting cultivated crops. The number of suitable crops
is limited unless very intensive management practices
are used. If good water-control and soil-improving
measures are used, some vegetable crops can be
grown. A water-control system must remove excess
water in wet periods and provide irrigation water in dry
periods. Crop rotation should keep close-growing, soil-
improving crops on the land three-fourths of the time.
Crop residue and soil-improving crops help to maintain
organic water content and protect the soil from eroding.
Seedbed preparation should include bedding of the
rows. Fertilizer and lime should be added according to
the needs of the crop.
Unless very intensive water management practices
are used, these soils are poorly suited to citrus. Areas
subject to frequent freezing are not suitable. A water.
control system must maintain the water table at an
effective depth. Citrus trees should be planted on beds,
and a plant cover should be maintained between the
trees. Fertilizer and lime are needed.
These soils are well suited to pastures of
pangolagrass, improved bahiagrass, and white clover.
Water-control measures are needed to remove excess
surface water after heavy rainfall. Fertilizer and lime are
needed, and grazing should be controlled to prevent
overgrazing and weakening of the plants.
Typically, the South Florida Flatwoods range site
includes areas of these soils. The dominant vegetation
is scattered pine trees with an understory of Saw
palmetto and grass. If good grazing management
practices are used, this range site has the potential to
produce significant amounts of creeping bluestem,
lopsided indiangrass, chalky bluestem, and various
panicums. If range deterioration Occurs, saw palmetto
and pine/and threeawn are dominant.

These soils are severely limited as sites for urban
development because of the wetness during rainy
periods. The high water table interferes with proper
functioning of septic tank absorption fields. Fill material
can be used to elevate the absorption field. Special .
measures are needed to overcome the wetness
limitation at sites for buildings and local roads and
streets. If adequate water outlets are available,
drainage can be installed to keep the high water table
below a depth of 2.5 feet. Building sites and roadbeds
can also be elevated by adding fill material to increase
the effective depth to the high water table.
The wetness and the sandy surface are severe
limitations affecting recreational uses. A water-control
system is needed to keep the high water table below a
depth of about 2.5 feet. Suitable topsoil or pavement
can be used to stabilize the soil in heavy traffic areas.

19-Florldana mucky fine sand, depressional. This
very poorly drained soil is in depressional areas mostly
on flatwoods. Areas of this soil range from 3 to several
hundred acres. Slopes are smooth to concave and are
o to 2 percent.
Typically, this soil has a surface layer that is 15
inches thick. The upper part is black mucky fine sand
and the lower part is black fine sand. The subsurface
layer to a depth of about 28 inches is fine sand. It is
gray in the upper part and grayish brown in the lower
part. The subsoil is grayish brown sandy clay loam to a
depth of about 40 inches, light grayish brown sandy
clay loam to a depth of about 48 inches, gray sandy
clay loam to a depth of about 58 inches, and greenish
gray sandy loam to a depth of at least 80 inches.
Included with this soil in mapping are small areas of
Chobee, Felda, Holopaw, and Kaliga soils. Chobee soils
have a loamy subsoil within 20 inches of the surface.
Kaliga soils are organic. Felda and Holopaw soils are
similar to the Floridana soil. The included soils make up
15 to 20 percent of the map unit.
This Floridana soil is ponded for more than 6 months
during most years. Areas on flood plains are subject to
frequent flooding as well as to po.nding. The available
water capacity is moderate. Permeability is very slow or
