How to Identify Succulents

Hi!

I've just been wondering, how do you identify succulents? What do the prefixes grapto and pachy mean? Also, how can you differentiate if it's a graptopetalum or a graptosedum or a graptoveria?

Sadly, my cup is transparent :( Should I paint it or cover it with something or should I just not use the cup?
