We solve a new puzzle raised by the observation of an enhancement structure Z(3930) in . If categorizing Z(3930) as χ
c2(2P), as suggested by Belle and BaBar, we must explain why χ
c0(2P) dominantly decaying into
is missing in the
invariant mass spectrum. In this work, we propose that the Z(3930) enhancement structure may contain two P-wave higher charmonia χ
c0(2P) and χ
c2(2P). We show that this assumption is supported by our analysis of the
invariant mass spectrum and cosθ
∗ distribution of
. This observation would not only provide valuable information of two P-wave higher charmonia χ
c0(2P) and χ
c2(2P), but also serve as the crucial test of our novel proposal to the observed enhancement structure Z(3930), especially at the forthcoming BelleII and the approved SuperB.
