Cocci (or coccus for a single cell) are round cells, sometimes slightly flattened when they are adjacent to one another. Bacilli (or bacillus for a single cell) are rod-shaped bacteria. Spirilla (or spirillum for a single cell) are curved bacteria which can range from a gently curved shape to a corkscrew-like spiral.
Coccus: Coccus bacteria, known as cocci, are oval-shaped or spherical bacteria. When cocci divide or reproduce they create different patterns, depending on the type. Types of coccus bacteria include Diplococcus bacteria, Streptococcus bacteria, Staphylococcus bacteria and Enterococcus bacteria.
Bacillus: Bacillus is a genus of Gram-positive, rod-shaped bacteria, a member of the phylum Firmicutes, with 266 named species. The term is also used to describe the shape of certain bacteria; and the plural Bacilli is the name of the class of bacteria to which this genus belongs. Wikipedia
