The eight minor tectonic plates are not typically shown on the major tectonic plate maps. They are the Arabian Plate, Caribbean Plate, Cocos Plate, Indian Plate, Juan de Fuca Plate, Nazca Plate, Philippine Sea Plate, and the Scotia Plate.
When I first saw you, I was certain that the tectonic plates had just shifted. The Earth's lithosphere is made up of seven or eight major, and many minor tectonic plates.

There are four types of plate tectonics, namely major plates, minor plates, ancient plates and plates within orogens.
Not all tectonic places carry continents. The Pacific Plate does not. Not all of the major land masses are on seven major plates. Below are two lists. The seven tectonic plates that are generally considered the primary plates include the following.African PlateAntarctic PlateEurasian PlateIndo-Australian PlateNorth American PlatePacific PlateSouth American PlateThere are smaller plates and two, the Arabian and Indian, might be put into a list of major plates. To get all the major land masses one what you could call continental plates, your would have to list eight plates, subtracting the Pacific and adding the Arabian and Indian.Here are eight tectonic plates that are the next smaller (or secondary) set of plates.

There are 41 minor plates so good luck with that
