Sadly we have just two types, the 747 (plus the A380 ugly sister) and everything else.
Nope:

In the puddle jumper market there is the BN2, the DHC6 and the Do228.

The 30 something seat market is lacking but apparently RUAG are thinking of reinventing the Do328, Saab are long out of the civilian aircraft market and god forbid that Short Bros might reenter the civilian aircraft market!

50 (ish) seats then solely the ATR42 but orders are lacking.

Stretched turboprop then ATR72 and DHC-400

Puddle jumper jets then EMB135/145 and CRJ's

Commuter Jets then the F28 family, the BAe146 and the EMB175/195 mob, apparently Bombardier are to have a crack at this market also.

The smaller jets then the A320 and B737 families.

The medium jets then the B757, B767, B787, A330, A350.

The big and/or 4 engine jets then the B777-200/300, A340, B747, A380.

Far more than merely: just two types, the 747 (plus the A380 ugly sister)
