	Adding "Nhandumirim" to the second analysis, created by Nesbitt & Ezcurra (2015), led to inconclusive results. In the strict consensus tree (average result of most parsimonious trees), "Nhandumirim" is part of a broad polytomy at the base of Saurischia, along with several traditional basal theropods, herrerasaurids, and "Eoraptor" (which, on the other hand, is frenquently considered an early sauropodomorph in most recent analyses). This is because it is a "wildcard" taxon with several equally likely positions within Saurischia. These positions may include "Nhandumirim" as the sister taxon to all other saurischians, as the sister taxon to "Eoraptor", or as the sister taxon to all other theropods (which also includes herrerasaurids in this option). Regardless, the authors considered unlikely that "Nhandumirim" is particularly close to "Staurikosaurus" or "Saturnalia".
