摘要：The researches made within the Vinga Plain led to a better knowledge of the morphological,
physical, and chemical features of the Cernisols class, as well as of the factors that contributed to their genesis
and distribution within the territory. The presentation and taxonomic classification of the soils was made
according to the Romanian System of Soil Taxonomy, recently adopted. The present paper renders the
modifications appeared in the taxonomy and denomination of the plain soils, as well as the implications of the
new criteria of the system upon the soil units delimited on the map.
