There is only one Catholic Church, but many Rites throughout the world. (What protestants call Roman Catholic) is only one of them.

That’s a very confused cladogram.

There is no distinction between “Latin” and “Roman.”

“Benedictine,” “Dominican” and “Cistercian” are not particular churches in the same way that “Coptic,” “Ethiopian,” “Greek Catholic,” etc. are.

Lastly, Catholics use the word “church” to refer also to various subsets of the universal church. What you seem to be calling varying rites within a rite are in most cases “particular churches” in union with each other. A particular church is a level of organization between parish church and the universal church. Those various “particular churches” listed under the (blue) rites simply share a common rite. The Latin particular church, however, uses Latin, Gallican, and Celtic rites.
