Lamdba (like most Greek letters in statistics) usually denotes a parameter of a distribution (usually of Poisson, gamma or exponential distributions). This will specify the entire distribution and allow for numerical analysis of the probability generating, moment generating, probability density/mass, distribution and/or cumulant functions (along with all moments), as and where these are defined.
