SEGNOSAURIA (2nd classification attempt)

["Øyvind M. Padron" <gorgosaur@hotmail.com>]

Sorry if this is gonna cause another nomenclature discussion. To prevent 
this, pease read: Any taxon I use here, are NOT according to ANY rule or 
anithing at all, except for my own preference. I know my last post made a 
discussion with no comparation because of my incorrect taxon names.
Again, the taxon names I use are only do give the taxon itself a definition, 
and may or may not be scientifically correct.

Thanx:)

I made this cladogram based on information I have collected about 
Therizinosaurs. I'd appreciate any comments on the placement of the species.

here we go again:

SEGNOSAURIA (=THERIZINOSAURIA)
|-Beipiaosaurus ('Oviraptorid' pelvis, coelurosaurid neck)
 |
 |-Therizinosauroidea
   |-Alxasaurus ('Segnosaurid' pelvis/segnosaurid neck)
     |
     |-Neimongosauridae (due to features in neck, jaw and pelvis)
     |  |-Neimongosaurus
     |
     |-Therizinosauridae (advanced pelves/scapula)
        |-Erlikosaurus (a tiny chance it's = Enigmosaurus)
        |-Therizinosaurus (scapula/scapulacoracoid resembles Segno)
        |-Nothronychus (Ischium very similar to Segnosaurus)
        |-Segnosaurus
           |
           |-Enigmosaurinae (fused ischium/pubis)
           |  |-Enigmosaurus
           |
           |-Nanshiungosaurus (fused cervical ribs/spoonshaped ischium)

If you got any further questions on how I have classified them, feel free to 
ask.
I'm gonna publish a illustrated guide to this cladogram in my website in a 
week or more.
