Cutans separated from the B horizon of an Orthic Black, an Orthic Dark Gray, and an Orthic Gray Luvisol soil from southwestern Manitoba had higher total nitrogen and dithionite-extractable iron contents than their corresponding horizon samples. The cutans from the Bt2 horizon of the Orthic Gray Luvisol profile contained, in addition, considerably larger amounts of organic matter and fine clay, and had a slightly different distribution of clay minerals than the horizon sample. Within each soil, the differences between the properties of the cutans and those of the bulk samples were generally small. This was attributed to the method employed to isolate the cutanic material and to the impossibility of collecting all cutans from the samples.
