EN Urban green areas have become an important tool for biodiversity conservation in cities. However, land use and the different management practices applied to these areas determine their effectiveness as biodiversity refuges within cities. In our study, we compare the biodiversity of three bioindicator groups of arthropods (ants, spiders and harvestmen) found in eleven urban green sites inWarsaw (Poland). The studied sites represent three categories of management: botanical gardens, public parks and urban woodlands. Our aimwas to determine the effect of the type of management (as urban green categories) on arthropod communities in urban areas.
