Does anyone know of a list of .Net Exception types .e.g. ArgumentNullException and under what circumstances you should use them? At the moment I'm just guessing based on the type name but I would rather get it right.

A list of them:

As for the circumstance, it depends, most of the time they make sense based on their name and arguments. ArgumentNullException, for example, is usually used when checking method / constructor arguments for null values.
Then you have others such as FileNotFoundException, NullReferenceException, InvalidOperationException, as you can see they read very easily and should be used with common sense.
Update 1: as someone has suggested, they are also on MSDN:

Here are views on common exceptions available:

Update 2: as for usage, Microsoft has guidelines for reserved exception types:
