In fact it does appear in Ethnologue, classified as a dialect of Slovene, under 
the name RESIA.
See www.ethnologue.com/show_language.asp?code=SLV
or www.ethnologue.com/show_country.asp?name=Italy

Among the three English names given in the Registration Form the second and 
third variant are only seldomly used.
