What EC2 instance types does EKS support?

Where can I see a list of the instance types supported by Elastic Kuberenetes Service? This will help me automated the selection of an instance type.

Or are all instance types supported? Is a different list supported for Managed Node Groups?

The EKS Console offers only a third of all possible EC2 types as a selection (image below--the only list that I can find). However, I have seen statements that in fact all instance types are supported.

Most instance types are available for use in Amazon EKS. The supported instance types for the latest version of the Amazon VPC CNI plugin for Kubernetes are shown here. You may need to update your CNI version to take advantage of the latest supported instance types.

You can find more information about launching self-managed Amazon EKS Linux worker nodes here.
