I already know some basic principles of pawn endgames and the basic checkmates, but are there more I should know? Please leave the name of them in the replies.

Opposition, triangulation, basic checkmates - K+2 rooks vs king, K+Q vs king, K+R vs king, Philidor position, Lucena position, are the ones on the top of my head.
By the way, I've written the article on how we, lower rated players, should approach the endgame - something on active play and some specific examples as well. If you are interested, here you go:
