The Elves are made up of three subraces, there are the Elves of the natural World, known as simply Elves or Wood Elves (who even reproduce with humans giving rise to Half-Elves), the Eladrin or High Elves, and finally the Drow or Dark Elves. Born from Corellon's tears each now follows primarily one of the three Elven Gods, Eladrin follow Corellon, Elves follow Sehanine, and Drow follow Lolth.
