Abstract
Urbanization has become a significant environmental concern, particularly in Mediterranean ecosystems known for their rich biodiversity. This study assesses the effects of urban expansion on native plant diversity, focusing on habitat fragmentation, pollution, and climate change. We conducted field surveys across various urban gradients in the Mediterranean region, analyzing species richness and composition. Our findings indicate a marked decline in native plant species in highly urbanized areas, underscoring the need for conservation strategies to mitigate biodiversity loss.
