Perhaps you meant the meson. Mesons are composed of two quarks, a quark and its antiquark. I'm not sure who predicted them but I believe the pi-meson was the first discovered. Then suddenly many more were discovered that were not predicted and they didn't know what to do until the current Standard Model was developed.
They're two ways of expressing the same idea. A "color singlet" meson is a meson consisting of a red-antired, green-antigreen, or blue-antiblue quark-antiquark pair. Since X-antiX cancels out, this is essentially the same thing as saying that the meson has no net overall color charge ... that is, it's colorless.
Yes, the muon is a subatomic elementary particle. The subatomic label is not really needed; all elementary particles are subatomic.
The electron has the smallest mass between subatomic particles: 9,10938291(40).10-31 kg.
