Lightly toasted malts carry a number of different names usually based on the region where the maltings are, so generally Biscuit/Aromatic in Belgium, Melanoidin in Germany, Victory in the US, Amber/Aromatic in the UK.

I've compiled a Malt Substitution table from various other tables on the internet, that you may find useful.
