A legend.
A label helps you to identify the data series quickly (data series: Related data points that are plotted in a chart. Each data series in a chart has a unique color or pattern and is represented in the chart legend. You can plot one or more data series in a chart. Pie charts have only one data series.), you can add data labels (data label: A label that provides additional information about a data marker, which represents a single data point or value that originates from a worksheet cell.) to the data markers (data marker: A bar, area, dot, slice, or other symbol in a chart that represents a single data point or value that originates from a worksheet cell. Related data markers in a chart constitute a data series.) in a chart. To update data labels with changes that you make to corresponding data in the worksheet, or to display the text or numbers in worksheet cells in the data labels, you can link data labels to worksheet cells. If you no longer need data labels, you can remove them.
On a chart, such as a line chart, a data markers shows where the point is, usually done with a dot or a box or a cross. A data label will show the actual value of that data point. So on a line chart you might see a data marker on the line to indicate it is a value from the data and with it a data label will tell you what the actual value is.

Data series
The legend is the function that identifies the data marker for each series in a chart.
A chart series is a set of data points, where each data point usually comprise an x and y value.
When you are creating charts in Excel a data series refers to the sets of values that are going to be on the chart, be it a line chart, a bar chart, a pie chart etc. Different types of charts can work with different kinds of series. If you select the data you want to chart, and use the Chart Wizard, it will detect what data you have chosen and define it into series for the purposes of being on the chart. You can do things like give names to the series or set colours for them or put titles and legends on the charts for them, and lots of other things. When you are working with a chart, a Chart menu will appear on the menu bar and there are options in it to do things with the different series that are in it.
A data series is a range of values to be charted. If you have multiple data values, you may have multiple series, like several lines on a line chart. So you can have lots of values in a series, and lots of series in some charts. A pie chart cannot have more than one series. Data can be of various types.A data series is a range of values to be charted. If you have multiple data values, you may have multiple series, like several lines on a line chart.
