What is a lunar eclipse on the moon?
A partial or total obscuring of the moon by the earth's shadow. Are you asking "If we are on the moon, what would a lunar eclipse be?" In that case, it would be something like what we call a solar eclipse, but it would be the earth obscuring the sun. I think it might more properly be called an occultation; the earth doesn't perfectly block the sun, it literally blots it out (in the case of a total lunar eclipse) for a while until it emerges from the other edge or limb of the earth.

How many kinds of eclipse are there?
On Earth, we get solar eclipses and lunar eclipses. A solar eclipse is when the Sun is obscured by all or part of the moon so that there is a shadow cast directly onto the surface of the earth. A lunar eclipse is when the Moon passes wholly or partially through the shadow of the Earth caused by the Sun, which darkens the Moon, or changes it distinctly reddish. Obviously in other positions in space, other kinds of eclipses would be possible. For instance, Mars has two moons, so it two different kinds of lunar eclipses. On a planet orbiting a binary star, you might speak of an eclipse when one star passes behind another, etc. There are some other complicated kinds of eclipse like the "Analemma Eclipse" in this picture " http://bethlapides.com/images//tutulemma.jpg "
