Generalizations.

It could also be speculated that the Index must therefore be used to correctly fire the Halos as it contains a record of all the species which Halo must target. The Monitors state that the Flood can only be stopped by starving them of sentient hosts; the Index, with its compilation of all sentient life in the galaxy, could instruct Halo to target them in the event of activation.
If the index is the record of all sentient life forms, and it MUST be inserted to activate the halo's weapon, then it also must be the "What we target."
So yes, unless Twi'leks, Bothans, Wookiees, Jawas, are all in the index for a specific halo ring, it's doubtful it'd affect them.
The Index is not confirmed to hold the record of all Sentient life. That is merely speculation from the Halo 3 Terminals. There is no canon to support it.
Your quote, taken from Halo: Nation, itself states is it SPECULATION, not canon.
It's already stated on pages 170-174 on the Halo Encyclopedia that the Halo Array targets the nervous system of any sentient being. I have a source, you do not.
----------------------
Even if your theory is true, that means the entire Galactic Empire is wiped out, since it's made of Humans. That means no Star Destroyers or Death Star, no Storm Troopers/ clones, ext.
The Flood's main enemy, the Galactic Empire/ Republic, would be killed, including human Jedi & Sith.
I don't think the remaining species would stand a chance against the Flood. If the Forerunners couldn't, I doubt Wookies could.
----------------------
Either way, everyone dies.
My Theory- Halo kills everything, Flood starve, everyone ends up dead.
Your Theory- Halo kills Humans, No more Galactic Empire, Flood are unmatched in their power. Everything gets infected, Flood starves, everyone ends up dead.
