^Actually, the Monster Manual alone has enough that it probably qualifies.

[[AC: LiveActionTelevision:]]
* In ''StarTrek'', the crew encounters a new alien race not quite OnceAnEpisode.  [[JustifiedTrope Of course, that's their]] ''mission''.  The result is a galaxy populated by at least hundreds if not thousands of races, of which all but a very few seem to be either HumanAliens, RubberForeheadAliens, or SpaceElves.

[[AC: {{Webcomics}}:]]
* ''Drowtales'' may qualify, largely as the result of curses, [[AWizardDidIt transformation spells that couldn't be reversed]], and [[ClarkesThirdLaw genetic engineering experiments]].  Specifically, you've got: elven races (dokkalfar, drowolath, drowussu, vanir, ver'drowendar, and xule'solen), dwarven races (duergar and gnomes), goblins (embari, halmes, rift halmes, hemoines, [[OurOrcsAreDifferent kotorcs]], and noz), [[PettingZooPeople ferals]] (normal cat, squashed - face cat, and racoon variants), nagas, driders (waeliniders, streekaiders, and ne'kalsaiders), dryads, and locust faeries.

[[AC: WebOrigional]]
* The ''OrionsArm'' setting contains over a hundred races, or "clades", most of which seem to be either provolves, animals given humanlike (or [[BeyondTheImpossible beyond]]) levels of intelligence by genetic engineering experiments, or purely arificial life, from the simple subturings to the mighty archailects.
