Compositional similarity of urban forests is a scaledependent phenomenon that is not affected by the presence or absence of nonnative species, suggesting a limited role for biotic interchange in promoting homogenization. However, compositional similarity across spatial scales increased uniformly with the addition of abundance information, suggesting that patterns of abundance may have greater biological relevance when homogenization trends among urban forests are considered.
