Apple’s Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for creating apps for Mac, iPhone, and iPad is called Xcode.

Xcode 4 includes the Xcode IDE, Instruments, iOS Simulator, and the latest Mac OS X and iOS software development kits (SDKs).

You can download it from the Apple website but note, Xcode only runs on Mac OS X and that is only supported on Apple Macintosh computers.

No other development environment is supported by Apple.

Xcode is the standard and only supported (by Apple) IDE for iOS development. It's also required, since you have to install it if you want any of the developer tools (you may be able to exclude the actual IDE when installing the developer tools, though I doubt it, but you'd still want Xcode for building iOS projects anyway). So, I suppose that is equivalent to Eclipse.
