These are not ornithopods, they are thyreophorans.  The first was described as a scelidosaurid, but has a good chance of being an ankylosaur (even if Scelidosaurus isn't one).  The second is very close to Scelidosaurus (considered synonymous by Lucas 1996, but Holtz has doubts).  They are both known only from mandibles (and a few tiny cranial bits in Bienosaurus).
