Its closest relative is Yandusaurus hongheensis, a dinosaur from the Late Jurassic of China.3
The name 'Enigmacursor' means 'puzzling runner' because scientists were confused for a long time about small plant-eaters from the Morrison Formation.1
It lived between 152 and 145 million years ago, during the Late Jurassic Period.1
Enigmacursor was a neornithischian dinosaur, a group of beaked, plant-eating ornithischians.2

Feññinoowo goonga
