If it's anything like the definitions used by the US census, the "Hispanic" and "Non-Hispanic" are ethnic distinctions, whereas "White" and "Black" are racial distinctions. Of course, that doesn't account for why other "races" aren't mentioned (including Asian), but I haven't looked carefully enough into the link yet to investigate that.
