Rules of Order are defined in. RONR 2:14 as written rules relating to the orderly transaction of business in  Meetings and the duties of officers in that connection. 

The object of Rules of Order is to facilitate the smooth functioning of the assembly and to proactive firm basis for resolving questions  of procedure that may arise.

Then there are three kinds of rules of Order.

1) Rules contained in laws and in the bylaws. 

2) Rules contained in RONR (the book)

3) Rules adopted by the organisation when they find it useful to adopt them.

The special Rules of Order are the rules in category 3

Special rules of order are rules adopted by the society that supplement or modify rules included in the adopted parliamentary authority.  The relate to the transaction of business within the meeting or the duties of the officers in that regard (see 2:14 and 2:16).
