Interfaces

Appendable Declares methods to append characters or character sequences. 
AutoCloseable Defines an interface for classes that can (or need to) be closed once they are not used any longer. 
CharSequence This interface represents an ordered set of characters and defines the methods to probe them. 
Cloneable This (empty) interface must be implemented by all classes that wish to support cloning. 
Comparable<T> This interface should be implemented by all classes that wish to define a natural order of their instances. 
Iterable<T> Instances of classes that implement this interface can be used with the enhanced for loop. 
Readable Represents a sequence of characters that can be incrementally read (copied) into a CharBuffer
Runnable Represents a command that can be executed. 
Thread.UncaughtExceptionHandler Implemented by objects that want to handle cases where a thread is being terminated by an uncaught exception.

Void Placeholder class for the Java keyword void

Enums

Thread.State A representation of a thread's state. 

Exceptions

ArithmeticException Thrown when the an invalid arithmetic operation is attempted. 
ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException Thrown when the an array is indexed with a value less than zero, or greater than or equal to the size of the array. 
ArrayStoreException Thrown when a program attempts to store an element of an incompatible type in an array. 
ClassCastException Thrown when a program attempts to cast a an object to a type with which it is not compatible. 
ClassNotFoundException Thrown when a class loader is unable to find a class. 
CloneNotSupportedException Thrown when a program attempts to clone an object which does not support the Cloneable interface. 
EnumConstantNotPresentException Thrown if an enum constant does not exist for a particular name. 
Exception Exception is the superclass of all classes that represent recoverable exceptions. 
IllegalAccessException Thrown when a program attempts to access a field or method which is not accessible from the location where the reference is made. 
IllegalArgumentException Thrown when a method is invoked with an argument which it can not reasonably deal with. 
IllegalMonitorStateException Thrown when a monitor operation is attempted when the monitor is not in the correct state, for example when a thread attempts to exit a monitor which it does not own. 
IllegalStateException Thrown when an action is attempted at a time when the VM is not in the correct state. 
IllegalThreadStateException Thrown when an operation is attempted which is not possible given the state that the executing thread is in. 
IndexOutOfBoundsException Thrown when a program attempts to access a value in an indexable collection using a value which is outside of the range of valid indices. 
InstantiationException Thrown when a program attempts to access a constructor which is not accessible from the location where the reference is made. 
InterruptedException Thrown when a waiting thread is activated before the condition it was waiting for has been satisfied. 
NegativeArraySizeException Thrown when an attempt is made to create an array with a size of less than zero. 
NoSuchFieldException Thrown when the VM notices that a program tries to reference, on a class or object, a field that does not exist. 
NoSuchMethodException Thrown when the VM notices that a program tries to reference, on a class or object, a method that does not exist. 
NullPointerException Thrown when a program tries to access a field or method of an object or an element of an array when there is no instance or array to use, that is if the object or array points to null
NumberFormatException Thrown when an invalid value is passed to a string-to-number conversion method. 
ReflectiveOperationException Superclass of exceptions related to reflection. 
RuntimeException RuntimeException is the superclass of all classes that represent exceptional conditions which occur as a result of executing an application in the VM. 
SecurityException Thrown when a security manager check fails. 
StringIndexOutOfBoundsException Thrown when the a string is indexed with a value less than zero, or greater than or equal to the size of the array. 
TypeNotPresentException Thrown when a program tries to access a class, interface, enum or annotation type through a string that contains the type's name and the type cannot be found. 
UnsupportedOperationException Thrown when an unsupported operation is attempted. 

Errors

AbstractMethodError Thrown by the VM when an abstract method is called. 
AssertionError Thrown when an assertion has failed. 
ClassCircularityError Thrown when the VM notices that an attempt is made to load a class which would directly or indirectly inherit from one of its subclasses. 
ClassFormatError Thrown by a class loader when a class file has an illegal format or if the data that it contains can not be interpreted as a class. 
Error Error is the superclass of all classes that represent unrecoverable errors.
