Abstract

A study was conducted in the green areas of the People's Council Hermanos Cruz, in order to characterize the urban trees from the composition and diversity. On a tour, we proceeded to select 11 areas, each considered as plots. Green areas of squares and parks, green areas of vehicle and pedestrian circulation, green areas between housing associations and other, areas for sampling were classified buildings and green areas of school facilities the corresponding street trees and parks and public facilities green areas were inventoried. Ecological parameters were evaluated and in addition to the economic valuation of urban trees. As results of the study, it was found that the distribution of species by growth habits, there is a predominance of trees, highlighting the families Bignoniaceae, Malvaceae, Meliaceae, Caesalpinaceae, Annonaceae and Arecaceae. Regarding the origin, they predominate species introduced for both trees to shrubs.
