Thank you kindly!

And I think 6339 was called the Cataadi.

There was also a primitive species listed in the teens, somewhere. I'm tempted to say species 1, but I don't think that's right. From "The Omega Directive".

The Caatati were from "Day of Honor," and they weren't given a number. Species 6339 didn't get a name, I'm pretty sure.

From "The Omega Directive," I'm also relatively sure that the two I have listed are the only two mentioned. Unless, of course, this was when UPN was hacking away at Voyager episodes and there were two versions of each episode, on longer than the other. However, I believe that was only with season 5, so the two listed are probably it. Trust me, I've kept track.

BTW, does anyone think that the number of 1 trillion Borg in the Unimatrix is exaggerated? I mean, the Borg probably have many trillions of drones, but I doubt that the population of hundreds of planets can be concentrated in the Unimatrix even if it is as huge as featured in DF. A Borg cube has a crew of "only" about one hundred thousand (I don't know where I got this number, but this is not that much considering the huge size of a cube), and the Unimatrix would be equivalent to 10 million(!) (27km)^3 cubes or one (646km)^3 cube (bigger than the second Death Star ).

Wasn't the Ferengi number also mentioned somewhere in an episode (Infinite Regress??)

I think the 100,000 figure comes from "Dark Frontier". And Seven regressed to a Ferengi in "Infinite Regress", but I'm unsure if we got a species name...

129,000, I believe. Just one of the useful facts available from my Borg page, assuming such an endeavor is ever completed.

Delurking, I finally have something to add! It would make sense (to me, at least!) that the Vulcans have a lower number - wouldn't the Borg have "discovered" them much earlier than humans, who remained Earthbound considerably longer, of of little interest to the Borg before Cochrane and the ensuing centuries' events? I wasn't under the impression that the Borg went around methodically catalogueing and conducting census sweeps of sectors of space - rather, that they scanned for recognizable signs of species that would prove useful to them (more efficient!)
