Labels: What on earth is an "otaly"?

[VViews]

Hi everyone,
I'm starting this thread because I'm scratching my head over a specific vord, otaly.
Voynichese.com gives 19 occurrences of otaly throughout the manuscript.
It is found in both the main text and the labels. It appears nowhere in the initial big plant series of quires.
Focusing on the labels, here are the things that are labeled as otaly:
Nymphs/stars in the Pisces, Dark Taurus, Libra and Leo pages of the zodiac section (one in each).
A piece of tubing/fluid flow in Q13, and two different plants/roots from the small plants sections.
(It does appear in the text on one of the Q17 big plant pages, f94r, but again this plant looks very different from the two in the small plants section.)

It seems to label completely unrelated things... or is there a connection between those things?

I know there are other examples of "labels" that label seemingly unrelated things, but this one really stood out for me.
