It is proposed that variations in these structures are due to differences in soil, climate and other environmental factors.

Abstract: This is a tabulation, in six columns, of 856 species of forage plants named and described in Linnaeus' Flora Suecica (1745). Linnaeus' adoption of the name Pan is from classical application to the pastoral life (especially of shepherds and herdsmen). The work introduced a binary name for each species, the second publication in which Linnaeus did this (for the first, see his dissertation, Gemmae arborum, 1749). The remaining columns identify the kind of animal that was observed to eat (or reject) the plant.
