  The dynamical similarity which exists between the $\lambda$-mode excited
$bbq$ baryons ($q$ refers to the $u$, $d$, and $s$ quarks) and the $\bar{b}q$
mesons inspires us to carry out a combined study of their spectroscopy. In this
work, the masses and strong decays of these low-lying $b\bar{q}$ and $bbq$
states are studied by the same theoretical methods, and the dynamical
similarity which is implied in their mass spectra and strong decays are also
discussed. The recent discovered $\bar{b}q$ states, including the $B_J(5840)$,
$B_J(5970)$, $B_{sJ}(6064)$, and $B_{sJ}(6114)$, are analyzed. According to our
result, the $B_J(5840)$ could be assigned as a 2$S$ state, while the
$B_J(5970)$ could be regarded as a member of the $1D(2^-,~3^-)_{j_q=5/2}$
doublet. The $B_{sJ}(6064)$ and $B_{sJ}(6114)$ are probably the $D$-wave
states. Especially, they could be explained as the members of the
$1D(1^-,~2^-)_{j_q=3/2}$ and $1D(2^-,~3^-)_{j_q=5/2}$ doublets, respectively.
The predicted masses and decay properties of other unknown $\bar{b}q/bbq$
states may provide useful clues to the future experiment.
