Can anyone please list for me ALL KINDS of waves? and the frequency range for each kind?
Thank You!

No I mean like there's the electromagnetic spectrum with 7 or 8 categories that can travel through space, and sound waves that can travel only through molecule...etc.
Not every single wave name :p

I think I've covered all types of seismic waves below (if that's not what you're looking for, please e-mail me):
P-waves - travel at speed of sound for the material they travel through (e.g. 5000 m/s in granite)
S-waves - about 60% of the speed of P-waves (60% speed of sound)
Rayleigh waves - about 70% of the speed of S-waves (42% speed of sound)
Love waves - about 90% of the speed of S-waves (54% speed of sound)

Sounds like maybe you need to start some of your own research.
