We see many alien species in the "Star Wars: The Force Awakens", especially in Maz Kanata's castle:

What species are they? Do all the species have a name? Is there a list of all alien species (along with their names) that we see in the "Star Wars: The Force Awakens"?
Note: Of course, there are the obvious ones we know from the previous movies.
Many (if not most) of them have names. They are listed in The Force Awakens: The Visual Dictionary, for example, in 'Castle Guests' section.
For example, the last square has {{format: "name (species) - comment"}}:
Pru Sweevant (Narquois bandit) - the bluebeard.
Captain Ithano aka Crimson Corsair. He's wearing red Kaleesh helmet but is a Delphidian species.
Quiggold (Gabdorin) - one legged pirate
Strono Tuggs, also known as Cookie (Artiodac) - top center
Second square
First square:
Praster Ommlen (Ottegan - similar to Ithorians) - the tall guy in back middle.
ME-8D9 droid is part of castle's old time population.
Middle square:
Grummgar and Bazine (Dowutin and Human) - the really big one and a black-hatted woman. SPOILER: she's a spy for First Order!
Gwellis Bagnoro (Onodone) who looks like he has ant-eater nose, and his pet bartghest Izby.
Another resource worth mentioning is Wookieepedia - people are fairly OCD about including that Vanity Fair article as a source, so simply search Wookieepedia for "Leibowitz" :)
One more curious resource may be LEGO sets. I saw one called 75139-battle-on-takodana mentioned.
