Amphibamus is a genus of amphibamid temnospondyl amphibians from the Carboniferous (middle Pennsylvanian) of North America.[1][2][3] This animal is considered to have been close to the ancestry of modern amphibians. Its length was about Шаблон:Convert.[4]

The generic name Amphibamus alludes to the two modes of locomotion of the animal, swimming with its oar-shaped tail, and crawling because of its long fingers with claws,[5] from Greek ἀμφί (amphí) "both" and -βάμων (-bámōn) "that goes" or βᾶμα (bâma) "leg".
