Location of this study was in Pristina city in Republic of Kosovo. The study was conducted in City park in Pristina, between Aprill 2020 and June 2022. This park is located near the city center, which is frequented by a large number of visitors.Urban green spaces comprise a range of habitat types that cross a continuum from intact remnant patches of native vegetation, brownfields, gardens, and yards, to essentially terraformed patches of vegetation that may or may not be representative of native community associations.Urban vegetation provides a wide variety of ecosystem services, including air quality improvement, climate regulation, and other elements that enhance urban environmental quality. Green and open areas can be public or private properties and are differentiated by their function, their ecological value and their belonging to other land use types.
