This is just another way of saying 'stock mutual fund'. Equities and stocks are the same thing, so this is just a regular mutual fund that invests in stocks.
(Note that there are other types of funds too...bonds, derivatives, foreign entities. However, equity funds are the most common and the most readily available to the vast majority of investors.)

There are basically 2 types of financial assets, debt and equity.
Debt means somebody promises to give you back your money plus interest according to some schedule. This would include bonds for example.
Equity means you own part of something, like shares of stock in a corporation.
An equity fund is simply a fund whose assets are (primarily) equity type investments.
