What you've posted so far looks good to me.
Conditional Reasoning, Cause and Effect, Formal Logic, and Numbers and Percentages are just chapters to teach particular skills.

They're not actually unique question-types.

Kaplan includes Evaluate the Argument questions in its Strengthen/Weaken chapter in Mastery Practice.

Powerscore includes Role of a Statement in its Method of Reasoning chapter.

You could try to match the formal logic question type from Powerscore with the questions marked FL from Mastery.

This is great, but I just went through my LRB and saw that they also have a Cannot Be True question type; where does that match up in Kaplan?
