dc.descriptionThe alteration of green spaces resulting from the urbanization process has always attracted the curiosity of researchers. It is in this perspective that this study focused on the knowledge of the characteristic flora of green spaces in the city of Bujumbura (Burundi). The results revealed that it consists of 127 species belonging to 109 genera and 53 families. The families of the Euphorbiaceae (7.1%), of the Fabaceae (7.1%), of the Arecaceae (6.3%), of the Poaceae (5.5%), of the Araceae (3.9%) and of the Malvaceae (3.9%) are the most represented and add up, at them only, more than one third (33.9%) of the total number of species listed. They are essentially dominated by introduced species at a level of 74.0%. Two species (Lantana camara and Spathodea campanulata) are qualified as invasive. It is necessary to take measures to conserve urban biodiversity in order to avoid the homogenization of urban vegetation to the benefit of introduced species.
