	What about cirrostratus and nimbostratus?

	I can't really speak to that but I do like the graphic/diagram format to change it up from the list format.

	isnt 'nimbus' one on its own?

	pretty sure nimbus is just a modifier, basically saying "rain version". Cumulonimbus: Rain-producing cumulus. Nimbostratus: Rain-producing stratus.

	Reminds me of When You Come by Crowded house "Like a cumulo-nimbus, coming in from the distance..."

	Nice quick quiz...but it would be nice to see this include a few of the lesser known types...like lenticular or mammatus...if nothing more as bonus answers. Then again, having majored in meteorology, I'm a bit biased I suppose.
