The richterite group minerals are defined as sodium-calcium amphiboles with 0,5 apfu < A(Na+K+ 2Ca) where Na or K is dominant, and with C(Al+Fe3++2Ti)<0,5 apfu. The W position may contain (OH),F or Cl.

Ferro-richterite is defined with
A position: Na dominant
C position: Fe2+ dominant
W position: (OH) dominant.
