Hi Dave,
Welcome to WAB. For a very simple guide to bulbs see:
Royal Horticultural Society - Gardening Advice: Bulb Planting
For the scale of just what 'bulbous plants' encompasses see:
International Bulb Society - Research, Conservation, and Culture of Flowering Bulbs and clink through the links to their
Gallery where they list hundreds of species.
Not all bulbous plants are valuable for a 'wildlife garden' in the UK - hopefully someone here may have a 'short list' of the most useful.
