In botany and biology, marked with two spots, drops, or similar rounded marks.
From the prefix 'bi-' (Latin, 'two') plus 'guttate' (from Latin 'gutta,' meaning 'drop' or 'spot,' plus the suffix '-ate' indicating 'marked with').
Scientists needed precise vocabulary to describe plant features with exactness—'biguttate' tells botanists exactly that a leaf or petal has two drops/spots, which can be crucial for identifying species correctly.
