A successivity in a linear order is a pair of elements with no other elements between them. A recursive linear order with recursive successivities U is recursively categorical if every recursive linear order with recursive successivities isomorphic to U is in fact recursively isomorphic to U . We characterize those recursive linear orders with recursive successivities that are recursively categorical as precisely those with order type k 1 + g 1 + k 2 + g 2 +…+ g n -1 (...) + k n where each k n is a finite order type, non-empty for i ϵ{2,…, n -1} and each g i is an order type from among {ω,ω * ,ω+ω * }∪{ k ·η: k.
