Gamat is a local name for all species of family S=chopodidae. Genera of S&chopus and Thelenota are the wo members of family S=chopodidae which can be found in Malaysia’s seawaters e.g. S&chopus horrens Selenka, 1867 and Thelenota anax H.L. Clark, 1921. For years, gamat has become popular as the main ingredient in the traditonal medicine industry in Peninsular Malaysia.
