The gully area with tattered landform and loosen soil structure has threated to the restoration of degraded ecosystem in dry-hot valley. For ascertaining the different characteristics of soil mechanical composition and soil anti- scourability (ANS), the soil samples were collected from three different gully positions of the gully watershed, gully heard and gully bed in each of active gully, semi-active gully and stable gully. The results indicated that active gully and semi-active gully were distributed with sandy loam soil, but soil texture in stable gully varied with soil position in the gully. The contents of soil clay and silt followed the same order: stable gully > semi-active gully > active gully, while the coarse sand content followed an opposite order. Fine sand content followed the order: semi-active gully > active gully > stable gully. The ANS of the soil in gully beds were the highest among the three positions for all gullies. The soil ANS in gully heard and gully bed followed the order: stable gully > semi-active gully > active gully. The watershed of active gully had the lowest soil ANS and the soil ANS of semi-active gully watershed was similar to that of the stable gully watershed. The linear regression analysis indicated that the sand content was the main factor affecting the soil ANS in three different gully positions of different activities gullies. The clay content was the main factor affecting the soil ANS in three gully positions of stable gully. The silt content was related to the soil ANS of the semi-active gully head and watershed and bed of stable gully. The research results can be expected to provide theoretical references for the further study on the relationship between soil texture and soil anti-erosion.
