Abstract
This study investigates the impact of integrating native plant species into urban green spaces on local biodiversity in metropolitan areas. By comparing biodiversity indices in areas with and without native species, the research demonstrates that native plant integration significantly enhances the habitat quality for local fauna. The study applies ecological modeling to predict long-term biodiversity benefits and suggests strategies for urban planners to maximize ecological benefits in city landscapes.
