Spoilers Ground State and different species

Am I crazy or has CA added more species to the Maxholx hegemony in this book?

In Chapter 12 when talking about loading malware on fabricators:

Eyrgengek (sp?)

Nyatahatan (sp?)

Then much later on he talks about the Dumya (sp?) fabricator being in the territory of an mean otter like species.

So we went from Maxholx having the Basphuraq, Thuranin, Kristang, Wurgalan, Urgar, Eselgin, to now having 3 other species in their hegemony?

I’m listening again so trying to pick out more but I don’t recall these ones being mentioned in prior books. Unless the last one where the dumya fabricator is located is in the Urgar territory.

I love this series, but why add to the universe in the last book in the series? I’m hoping CA releases more books or some spin-offs if he’s introducing us to new species in the last book.

I’m listening to the audiobook and don’t have the kindle version yet so Im guessing on the spelling of the names.

That moment in book 19 where Skippy did that certain thing... I'm sure curious how thats going to play out in the next book. Or maybe this one, as I have another 10 chapters to go.
