Аннотация: ABSTRACT Two surface microhorizons –vesicular and platy– were found to be typical of the fabric of topsoil horizons in gravely loamy soils located along an arid/continental climatic gradient in the Subboreal zone of Central Asia (from southern Russia to Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, and Mongolia). Their genesis is related to active vesiculation (for vesicular A1 microhorizon) and cryogenesis (for platy A2 microhorizon) against a background of high clay mobility and/or eolian accumulation of fine material. New mechanisms responsible for the formation of vesicular pores are suggested: (a) the leaching of dense complete crystal infillings (moldic voids) and (b) the development of biogenic capsules typical of iron bacteria that were diagnosed by the microbiological method of fouling Agar-covered glasses under natural conditions. In a series of studied soils, Yermic Regosols are characterized by additional specific microfeatures: (1) iron depletion from the material around the pores and formation of iron concentrations in the intraped mass owing to biogenic mobilization of iron with participation of sulfate- and iron-reducing bacteria and (2) the accumulation of organic matter (residues of microbial cells) in the vesicular pores.
