When drawing what is the name of these textures and patterns?

Question

Is there a name for drawing/painting by texture and pattern naming?

For example naming that goes along with these patterns and expands further?

I would ask for a specific book but I believe that is off topic for this site.

This question is related (and a partial duplicate). – Joachim Feb 01 '22 at 09:58 — Joachim, Feb 01 '22 at 09:58

Hatching and Crosshatching techniques

Different types of hatching and crosshatching:

Scribble hatching: overlapping circles or squiggles. This leaves a rough organic feel and texture
Hatching: Parallel lines to fill in a tone
Patch hatching: Creating small interlacing lines, varying in angle (that look like a patch)
Cross hatching: Similar to the patch hatching, but avoiding 90° angles while interlacing lines, staying with acute line angles.
Contour hatching: Instead of keeping the lines parallel, you wrap the lines around, like a curved surface. As you draw, the lines will wrap around the curved surface.
