I know that Ethereal 0.10.6 doesn't use the filename extension to interpret a capture-file; it examines the contents. However, I'm still interested to know which file-types go with which of the many filename extensions that Ethereal 0.10.6 registers. I have gleaned a few:

5VW   - Accellent 5Views capture
ACP   -
APC   -
ATC   -
BFR   -
CAP   - Libpcap (common file extension)
ENC   -
ERF   - Endace Measurement Systems
FDC   -
PCAP  - Libpcap
PKT   -
SNOOP - Sun Snoop
SYC   -
TPC   -
TR1   -
TRACE -
TRC   -
WPC   -
WPZ   -
