seriatim

In ordered succession

Seriatim means one after another in sequence, taking up each item or point in order: The judge addressed the arguments seriatim.

The word is formal and appears most often in legal and academic writing.

It emphasizes methodical, point-by-point treatment rather than summary or selective discussion.
