INFO Holotype is an ilium, other referred material includes maxilla, astragalus, humerus, and tooth.

Acetabulum semi-perforate, two sacrals, good brevis fossa, acute anteromedial corner to astragalus.

Fraser et al provide a small cladogram in which Agnosphitys is more derived than Herrerasaurus and both are outgroups to Dinosauria, it seems that their main take is that Eoraptor and herrerasaurids are not dinosaurs, let alone saurischians.

Two spellings of the new genus are provided in the paper and they are used interchangeably. In the systematic palaeontology section, the new genus is given as Agnosphitys whereas - immediately below - the new species within this genus is given as Agnostiphys [sic] cromhallensis.
