Diagnosis Shells with similar size, proportions and dorsal ornamentation by limbate whorl sutures as the generotye R. scarsellai. In the axial section, the shell exhibits, however, a higher dorsal and a lower ventral convexity in comparison with the Cretaceous species but the ratio of the equatorial to axial diameter remains roughly the same. There are 9 chambers in the last whorl. The only proloculus that is measurable in our material has a diameter of 0.04 mm. [details]
