What enemies do you use most often in D&D combat?

First Post
This is a follow up thread/poll to my previous thread/poll on the importance of combat in our D&D games.

I would really like to ask on what percent of your enemies are of what monster type, but that is not easily accomplished with the available options for poll creation. Consequently, I will instead ask:

Excluding prewritten adventures, goblins lead the way so far -- they were used for my 1st level group as an appropriate-EL encounter, and for the high-level evil group as an introductory "Destroy and feel mighty" encounter before they started to die. Er, that is, played the actual adventure.
 

I'm sure it depends on the campaign and adventure, but in the last game I ran, I used mostly humans, humanoids, animals, and vermin.

Looking back on the adventures I have recently worked on, I've used fey, constructs, oozes, abberations, animals, magical beats, outsiders, and vermin.
 

Constructs and undead have been seen a lot in my game lately (if any of my players are reading this you will be seeing something NEW this weekend.) Muhahhahahahhaaaa......
 

Humanoids with occassional constructs thrown in make up the grand majority of my foe palette. Last session I used a plant foe for the first time, which was interesting~
 

It is a pity the poll options don't include some kind of sliding scale that would enable voters to show how much they use each monster. That would give even more interesting results.
