Extended summon monster list for D&D 3.5
The following creatures are listed in official D&D third edition sources as being summonable by the summon monster series of spells. Entries marked † should probably be ignored due to later articles or the D&D 3.5 revision superceding that entry and moving it to another summon monster list, usually higher.

Adding new summon monsters
Dragon #302 recommends that summon monster spells should be able to summon creatures of the following challenge rating, making small adjustments for creatures which are unusually powerful in the hands of PCs:
| Spell | Challenge rating |
|---|---|
| Summon monster I | Less than 1 |
| Summon monster II | 1 |
| Summon monster III | 2 |
| Summon monster IV | 3 |
| Summon monster V | 4-5 |
| Summon monster VI | 6-7 |
| Summon monster VII | 8-9 |
| Summon monster VIII | 1-11 |
| Summon monster IX | 12-13 |
A variant in that issue recommends limiting the caster to three creatures per spell, with each additional creature requiring a day of study and two skill checks, with a maximum of three plus your spellcasting ability score modifier. Another variant allows casters to acquire any creature by finding a formula the same way a wizard can add new spells to their spellbook. Another variant places no limit on summons known.
Later D&D 3.5 books suggest that each new summon added should replace one on the standard list, in order to limit the spell’s versatility.
The Celestial and Fiendish templates are nearly identical, so swapping one for the other is equal. Planar Handbook suggests that clerics unable to summon fiendish creatures should not be able to swap those summons out on their list, as to later D&D books discourage making summon monster spells too versatile.
