Abstract

Urbanization is a major driver of biodiversity loss, particularly affecting plant species in Mediterranean climates. This study examines the ecological impacts of urban expansion on local plant biodiversity in the Mediterranean region. We conducted field surveys and spatial analysis to assess species richness and distribution across urban, peri-urban, and rural gradients. Our findings indicate significant reductions in native species and increased prevalence of invasive species in urban areas. The study highlights the importance of sustainable urban planning to mitigate biodiversity loss and suggests strategies for enhancing urban green spaces to support native plant species.
