| description | In many Colombian cities, urban forestry is the result of tree planting policies based on introduced species. Cities cut apart original ecosystems, causing alterations, disturbances and deterioration, and because most of the tree populations on urban settings are non native varieties, fragmentation ofthe ecosystem does not diminish. Our results depict that introduced species are, in fact, dominant in many Colombian cities and, because those do not provide food to native fauna (avifauna and small mammals); although they provide some ornamental and environmental services, they do not contributeto the connectivity of fragmented ecosystems caused by urban development. |

Las arborizaciones en muchas ciudades colombianas son el resultado de programas de arborización basados en especies introducidas. Las ciudades fragmentan los ecosistemas originales, creándoles alteraciones, disturbios y deterioro; y debido a que la mayor cantidad de árboles plantados en los espacios urbanos corresponden a especies introducidas, esta fragmentación de los ecosistemas no disminuye. Nuestros resultados muestran que en muchas ciudades colombianas las especies introducidas predominan y por ser especies que en su mayoría no ofrecen alimento a la fauna nativa (avifauna y pequeños mamíferos); aunque prestan algunos servicios ornamentales y ambientales, no contribuyen a la conectividad de los ecosistemas fragmentados por el desarrollo urbano.
