Abstract
SummaryOne of the discriminant functions of mathematical statistics is used in a re‐examination of the chemical features of some terra rossas and rendzinas from South Australia. The results indicate that these soils constitute a bimodal group chemically. Dichotomy is therefore justifiable on chemical as well as on mor‐phological grounds.The use of a discriminant function in taxonomic work is illustrated by an application to some extra‐Australian terra rossas and rendzinas. The result suggests that soils with similar morphological features usually have similar chemical features.
