For a start consult the above article, it mentions most types you will encounter and need with a few exceptions. boyshorts is the Americanized English word for knickers but seems to be somewhat different especially in the context of Asian art. Most taggers prefer the use of knickers. With very few exceptions, always use knickers when a Touhou character is wearing that type of panty.

The article doesn't mention every single type of panty out there. Gelbooru uses highleg panties and lowleg panties respectively depending on where a stringy undergarment is tapered. whale tail can be used for the Y-shaped waistband of a thong or g-string when visible above the waistline of low-rise jeans, shorts, or a skirt, but is functionally identical to highleg panties.

Scanties aren't mentioned in the article. Someone needs to write about them.

maebari is for when a vagina is covered by an adhesive. bandaid on vagina is self-explanatory.
