I'm not sure what to call them. I mean, they're not werelynxes, and I think 'lynxtaur' would sound rather, uh, stupid (why is it adding a -taur always means centaur and not minotaur?), so... they're lynxes. Lynxpeople, maybe. They were going to be centaurs until I remembered I don't like horses. Large predator animals are much better.

Anyway. 17 colours, and a very good example of why the back sprites end up being much taller (sometimes) than the front sprites. Because you have to angle them down in the back view (as opposed to up in the front view), so there's the unit's usual height plus the isometric distortion (one pixel down for two across is how I do it, and really the most-used one), which means... they're tall.

Wow... how do you have the patience to do that? They're sooo small! I'd call them like Lynxaur or something, dropping the t. Just a suggestion
