Ubuntu 14.04 Terminal command to find all specific file types

Ubuntu

What is the command in the Terminal for find all files of a specific file type? E.g., all jpegs.

I'm looking for a global search similarly to that on Windows/MacOSX where you can find all files with a specific type.

What is the equivalent for this on the Ubuntu terminal?

Try to use the "find" with option -name like this e.g. to find all files with extension "*.txt":

find . -type f -name "*.txt"
