Evidence for introduce of new soil type into the Bulgarian Classification are given in this article. Its diagnostic characteristic includes an ochric horizon, many high amount of quartz sand calcareous properties between 20 and 50 cm. alkaline soil reaction a low content of colloides and clay. The soil profile has diagnostic solum Akq – Ckq. These soils are formed on hilly places and loamy sand or coarser materials. According to their physico-chemical characteristics they are with a low carbonate content moderate alkaline strongly basic with low sorption exchange capacity weakly colloidal and low bufferal with average relative able to adsorption and improper constructed. These properties define the ability of the investigated soils to be included as independent soils unit /Arenosols/ into the Bulgarian Classification
