Two spots are still open, the Cluk-Ruk and the Kotosians. Both of them seem to be doing rather well, and you still have many opportunities to catch up with the other Empires. The Cluk-Ruk has been under AI control for a few turns, while the Kotosians have had an AI under autopilot for fifteen turns or so.

The Weyrlings are also available, but they have had no stable player since the beginning of the game (with the exception of Ruatha, who made a turn for this Empire from time to time). I wouldn't expect them to be in a great shape by this, and the fact that I have yet to make contact with them doesn't bode well either.
