Variant spelling of baccilla; a small berry or diminutive berry-like botanical structure.
From Latin bacca (berry) with diminutive suffix variations; the double-l variant is an alternative spelling found in older botanical texts.
Scientific texts sometimes have spelling variants because Latin and English don't follow identical rules, and older scholars used different conventions—it's a fossil of botanical history.
