Three distinct striatal GABAergic interneuron subtypes are generally recognized: parvalbumin-expressing, NPY/SOM/NOS-expressing, and calretinin-expressing interneurons.
Quoted textsource-backed
From the anatomical studies, three distinct GABAergic interneuronal subtypes are generally recognized. The best-studied subtype expresses the calcium-binding protein, parvalbumin. The second best known interneuron type expresses a number of neuropeptides and enzymes, including neuropeptide Y, somatostatin, and nitric oxide synthase. The last GABAergic interneuron subtype expresses the calcium binding protein, calretinin.
No recordings from identified calretinin-expressing striatal interneurons had been obtained at the time of this article.

Thus far, no recordings from identified CR interneurons have been obtained.
The marker sets defining the three classic striatal GABAergic interneuron classes do not overlap or co-localize.
