A doe, same as Lily Evans because he loved her so much.

According to the character Remus Lupin, a witch or wizard's Patronus can change from a "great shock" or "emotional upheaval" (Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, USA Scholastic hardcover edition, p340). Snape's Patronus may have changed because he was tormented by her death or it may always have been a Doe as he always loved her.

In the chapter "The Prince's Tale," in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Snape casts his doe Patronus in front of Dumbledore, 16 years after Lily's death. Dumbledore asks him, "After all this time?" and Snape replies, "Always." (Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, USA Scholastic hardcover edition, p687).

What form does Stan shunpikes patronus take?

Rowling has never stated what Stan's patronus is. In fact, it's unclear whether he even can produce a patronus. Death Eaters, with the exception of Snape since he stopped being a Death Eater, are unable to produce a patronus. Most fans believe that, since Stan was simply Imperiused and was not a true Death Eater, that Stan was indeed able to produce a patronus.
