First of all, the ring of fire looks more like a lasso.

I'm not sure about all the volcanoes, but I think these are most of them.

Mt. St. Helens: located in Oregon, USA, had a Plinian type eruption in 1980. Is Composite (made of tephra and lava) volcano.

Mt. Rainier: located in Washington, USA. Last eruption in 1894. Considered one of the most dangerous. Is composite.

Mt. Garibaldi: located in British Columbia; founded by Giuseppe Garibaldi. Is composite.

Mt. Fuji: Honshu, 60 miles southwest from Tokyo, Japan. Composite.

Mt. Pinatubo: located on the island Luzon. Last eruption was Plinian in June 1991. Composite.

Mt. Krakatoa(Krakatau in Indonesian): located in between islands Java and Sumatra in Indonesia. Krakatoa exploded in 1883, killing around 40,000 people. Mt. Krakatoa is now a Caldera(a volcano that has caved in.)

Mauna Loa: located in Hawaii. Last eruption in 1984. Is largest volcano on earth. Is shield(made from lava) volcano.

Paracutin: located in Mexico. Last eruption in 1952. Is cinder-cone(made from tephra) volcano.

Hope this helps. ~.~
