In this paper, we give infinitely many examples of (non-isomorphic) connected $k$-regular graphs with smallest eigenvalue in half open interval $[-1-\sqrt2, -2)$ and also infinitely many examples of (non-isomorphic) connected $k$-regular graphs with smallest eigenvalue in half open interval $[\alpha_1, -1-\sqrt2)$ where $\alpha_1$ is the smallest root$(\approx -2.4812)$ of the polynomial $x^3+2x^2-2x-2$. From these results, we determine the largest and second largest limit points of smallest eigenvalues of regular graphs less than -2. Moreover we determine the supremum of the smallest eigenvalue among all connected 3-regular graphs with smallest eigenvalue less than -2 and we give the unique graph with this supremum value as its smallest eigenvalue.
