Wahlenberg made his main work in the field of plant geography, and published, among other things the Flora Lapponica (1812), a considerably extended version of the work of his compatriot Linnaeus, who wrote a publication of the same name (1737). His other works were based on his trips to Norway, Finland and the plant world of northernmost Sweden. Wahlenberg was elected a member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences in 1808.
