Ryukyu Islands only issued stamps while under US administration.

You will find them in Scott WW Volume 1 after in the US possessions section after Puerto Rico and before UN.

It is also listed in depth in the Scott US Specialized.

I would suggest using the index at the back of each volume for questions like these. Only in exceptional cases you will not find an answer there.
