It's not a separate race per se because biologically they're both the same species of goblins. It's also not a hybrid because a hybrid is a mixture of two or more different species. For example Zesshi Zetsumei can be called a hybrid. Rather, it's better to coin it as an evolution. It's the next step of their evolutionary process. Just some biology stuffs.

Yup, just like Pokemon where Pikachu turns into a Raichu and Digimon where Agumon digivolves to Greymon. Minus the fabulous transformation sequence, Goblin evolves to Hobgolin.

If that's too complicated then you can just say it's the next racial class after goblin. For example, Ainz started from Skeleton -> reach level 15 -> unlocks Lich class -> reach level 15 -> unlocks Elder Lich -> and so on.
