Is there any index to equate PB Minis with the Bestiaries?

[GWGuen]

Is there an index somewhere that tells what the correct name is for a Pathfinder Battles figure in one of the Bestiaries?

I'm trying to help a fairly new Pathfinder player to be a GM for the first time. I gave him my Skulls & Shackles figures along with some others since he's wanting to create something in a coastal city. He saw the Sahuagin figures but he had no idea what they were since they're labeled as "Sea Devil"s on the figures. He finally had to call me and ask what they were, which he didn't want to do since I'll be playing in the first game he runs. But his choice was to either give me a clue as to what we'd be facing or not be able to use the figures at all.

I don't understand why the PB Minis' names don't match the Bestiary names but I wouldn't really care as much if there was an index that I could give him to look at.

Thanks,
GWGuen

Various monsters like Illithid and Beholder are copyrighted. That being said, it is somewhat odd to have Sahuagin in the Bestiary, but not on the mini...

http://www.pathfinderminis.com/ lists the actual name for certain devils and demons with each mini, though I noticed the Skulls & Shackles has not yet been updated with such information.

The reason that the Sea Devils are called that and not their bestiary name is to do with where Paizo gets their authorisation to use those names.

Paizo can use those name only through the OGL. One of the clauses of the OGL is that it needs to be in anything that uses it. Depending on your interpretation, that would mean it would either have to be on the mini box, or even on the mini itself.

However, your idea for an index is really good
