According to NOAA Severe Storms Laboratory, a landspout is a tornado with a narrow, rope-like condensation funnel that forms while the thunderstorm cloud is still growing and there is no rotating updraft - the spinning motion originates near the ground.
A tornado, meanwhile, is a small-diametre column of air that develops inside a convective cloud and comes into contact with the ground.
