wa alaykum as salaam wa rahmatullahi!
Thank you for your question! As for the number of the imams, according to the text Tuhfa Sharh Zalaf, the number from Amir al-Mumineen (as) to Imam Yahya Hamideen is about 110. Then, there was Imam Ahmed and after him, the last Imam Muhammad al-Badr. So that takes the number to 112.
And Allah knows best!

We say Alayhi Asalam after mentioning Imam Yahya Hamidaddin, Imam Ahmad bin Yahya Hamidaddin, and Imam Muhammad al Badr Hamidaddin, right?

al salamu alaikum,
i would add to that that it is very important to differentiate between the zaydi concept of imamah and 12erism.
In 12er imamah it is essential to know and recognize the 12 Imams, so it is a part of the creed.
Zaydi Imamah is only part of the creed in a general way, it is the believe of the right of the ahl al bayt. it doesnt mean that you as a zaydi have to know the numbers and names of all of the imams. it wouldnt make you less zaydi if you didnt know there was a zaydi imamate in the daylamite regions of persia.
so this difference is essential
wa salamu alaikum
