Original Description

Test elongate, slightly tapering, biserial for most of the length, latest portion uniserial; chambers inflated, earliest ones biserial, gradually becoming more loosely so, and last-formed ones recti­linear and nearly globular or slightly pyriform; sutures de­pressed; wall finely hispid throughout; aperture rounded, at the end of a short neck which is usually excentrically placed.

Size:
Length 0.25-0.30 mm.; diameter 0.08-0.10 mm.

Etymology:

Extra details from original publication
This species differs from R. texana in the much longer, biserial stage and loosely biserial characters in the adult. It occurs at several stations in the lower and middle portions of the Austin chalk. In the loosely biserial character it resembles the figures given of Tubitextularia from the Cretaceous of Bohemia.
