Yes, it's just another name of calling them:).

They are all variations in colour/coat of the same species of hamster. I believe all hamsters are from Syrian so they all have a common ancestry

Syrian hamsters are the largest by far. Chinese hamsters have a proportionally longer tail than any other hamster species. Campbell's Russian Dwarf hamsters, and Winter White hamsters are easily distinguished from the other breeds, but harder to distinguish between the two. Winter Whites turn white in winter as they shed their darker fur, and the paler fur grows thicker. However the two species can interbreed, and your dwarf hamster may be a hybrid. Roborovski's Dwarf Hamsters are significantly smaller than other dwarf hamsters.
