I just thought I'd go over this, with some help from Player's Guide to Faerun, and determine what from the various 3.5 edition Monster Manuals (and probably Fiend Folio as well) in the Realms, namely outsiders that belong to certain Core D&D planes. Here's what I've got thus far.

Anyway, here's what I could come up with for certain extraplanar monsters from the Core Monster Manual.

Achaierai - Barrens of Doom and Despair
Archons - House of the Triad
Barghests - Clangor or the Barrens of Doom and Despair
Eladrin - Arvandor or Gates of the Moon
Formians - Unknown
Guardianls - House of Nature
Howlers - The Supreme Throne
Inevitables - The Fugue Plane or House of the Triad
Night Hags - Barrens of Doom and Despair, Fury's Heart, or the Supreme Throne
Nightmare - Barrens of Doom and Despair
Titan - Warrior's Rest
Vargouille - Barrens of Doom and Despair or Fury's Heart
Yeth Hound - Fury's Heart

The formians live on Arcadia in generic DnD so the most natural place for them on the Tree would be the House of the Triad though they could easily live on other planes as well such as the Blood Rift and Dweomerheart, since generic formians are also noted as being found in Hades and Mechanus.

When life turns it's back on you...sneak attack for extra damage.

According to the Monster Manual, the Formians lived on the plane of Mechanus, not Arcadia. I was considering either the Fugue Plane or Cynosure, but the latter definitely didn't sound like a place for any creature other than deities meeting to take their affairs to court.

I was going by the Manual of the Planes, not the Monster Manual. Formians have made their homes primarily on Arcadia since their inception. Like I already wrote, they are also found on Mechanus and Hades - the FR equivalents of which are Dweomerheart and the Blood Rift.
