It should not be confused with the variety Zalema (synonym Perruna) due to synonyms that seem to indicate it. The variety was first mentioned in 1792 by the agronomist Cristóbal Conde Medina (1726-1798) as occurring in Extremadura. In 1807, the botanist Simon de Rojas Clemente y Rubio (1777-1827) described the three varieties Perruno Duo with white berries, Perruno Común or Perruno Pierrot with reddish berries and Perruno Negro with black berries.
