Lambda Tauri (λ Tau λ Tauri) is a triple star system in the constellation Taurus. In the Calendarium of Al Achsasi Al Mouakket this star was designated Sadr al Tauri which was translated into Latin as Pectus Tauri meaning the bull chest. In 1848 the light from this system was found to vary periodically and it was determined to be an eclipsing binary system—the third such discovered.
