    There is a full list of the most relevant ones with abstracts at TheSearchEngineList.COM

    Then there are specialized search engines, like Icon Search, Video Search Engines, etc.
    I found a whole bunch of Video and film search engines at a site called YouTubeAlternative.com

    ... for starters...

    Although there are many search engines the share of total searches is not evenly distributed. I found these stats from a quick search:

    Google: 85.75%
    Yahoo: 5.38%
    Baidu: 3.52% [never heard of this one before]
    Bing: 3.11%
    Ask: 0.63%
    AOL: 0.42%
    ....

    Of course these numbers are approximate and I don't know how they collected their data, but it should give you a general idea about where to focus your attention.

    There are thousands of web search engines out there, alot of them are custom google search engines which run off the Google servers but just search within certain websites / keywords and such.
