The species name comes from Latin aer (air) and lata (carried), to reference the fact that the species was first isolated from an air sample.
The optimum growth temperature for R. aerilata is 30 °C, but can grow in the 5-35 °C range. The optimum pH range is 6-7, and can grow in pH 5-9. The species is highly intolerant of NaCl.
