Scrofana, almost unique is Sicilian, Scrofani, very widespread, is typically Sicilian, of Ragusa in particular and of Lentini, Palazzolo Acreide and Syracuse in Syracuse, Catania and Mazzarrone in the Catanese, Vittoria, Comiso, Acate and Scicli in the Ragusano and Palma of Montechiaro in the Agrigentino, Scrofano, much rarer, is specific to Syracusan, Portopalo of Capo Passero and Pachino, should derive from a nickname based on the dialect Sicilian term Scròfanu (scorpion fish), perhaps to emphasize the ugliness of Founder or maybe their goodness.
