In the hobbit they were referred as ''Earth Men'' IIRC, a greater and more bulkier form of Orcs.
The in Lotr seen Orcs are mostly Uruk-Hai (Uruks/Hobgoblins), the more advanced version of the Orcs.. they could withstand the hellish face of the Sun (for orcs a great burden)
In the Moria Mountain, there were the smaller races of orcs (goblins)... there are many species and evolved states of Orcs and Goblins (though they are all of the same origin and life-line, but they adept to there home ground and atmosphere)
Saruman and Sauron used an advanced version of the Orcs, the Uruk-Hai and the greater Goblin kinds (the lackeys seen in Sarumans tower, Orthanc)
