Description
As the lightest charm and beauty baryon, respectively, the $\Lambda_c$ and $\Lambda_b$
are the major decay products of baryons with open or hidden heavy flavors. Various $\Lambda_c$ and $\Lambda_b$ production processes may provide valuable information on the heavy baryon spectroscopy including penta-quark states with hidden charm and beauty. The baryon spectroscopy with open heavy flavor may play a unique role for understanding light diquark correlation. On the other hand, the decay of $\Lambda_c$ and $\Lambda_b$ may produce various lighter baryon resonances including hyperon resonances, penta-quark states with hidden charm and strangeness,
etc.. Interesting physics and prospects on hadron spectroscopy from the production and decay of $\Lambda_c$ and $\Lambda_b$ will be reviewed.
