Table 2. Palaeoecological interpretations of selected fossiliferous localities which have yielded early
stegocephalians or other tetrapodomorphs. The habitat attributed to each locality is scored on the basis of the
data presented in the paper, rather than on the interpretation of the authors of the cited references. Habitat: as
for Table 1; N/A, not applicable (terrestrial localities). Not all interpretations found in the literature have been
inserted; the emphasis is on interpretations which are supported by several studies
