Description

The illustrations of R. pulchra show a highly elongate shell with intensely fluted septa and rather massive axial fillings. The holotype has about 5 volutions. The minute size of the shell and rather indistinct details of its internal structure suggest that it may be related to Minojapanella FUJIMOTO & KANUMA, 1953. RlISsiella originally was placed in the "Boultoniinae."
