I decided categorize the beasties by where they come from. I left out most things that don't come from real life mythology. That and common Humanoids. Seems silly to list elves, dwarves, goblins, etc. I also left out non-Native Outsiders as they are Planar beings and could really show up anywhere. Where a creature exists in one region's mythology but is supposed to live elsewhere I list them by where they where thought to live.
Let me know what you think or if I missed anything. :)

Stymphalidies are Greek mythology. They are in the Labours of Heracles, among other myths.

Ya I know but they're also listed as Warm Climate creatures.
I wasn't really sure where I should put them. :/PS. I just added a note after such entries.

That was kind of a guess based on the anatomy and climate of the creature compared to where such big cats could be found irl. It seems to fit. >.<
