The present work is the result of a qualitative analysis of the conditions of urban trees in the Municipality of Matelandia, Paraná, in neighborhoods and streets of the center, through the identification of botanical species, and further development of a botanical inventory in search of a detailed analysis of each species identified as characteristics regarding the adaptability in the urban environment, climate, size, conflicts with the network of power distribution and sidewalks, pruning practices, among other factors. We found 396 individuals, divided into 15 distinct species, and Caesalpinia peltophoroides was most prevalent, totaling 47.22% of the subjects, followed by Ligustrum lucidum var. japonicum Thunb. with 15.40% of the total and Murraya paniculata to 9.60% of the total. Were usually observed several problems related to incompatibility of individuals with the physical structure of the tracks, as well as irregularities in relation to heavy pruning, the absence of trees in places necessary, the replacement of individuals and low diversity of species found, demonstrating the urgent need to prepare an urban forestry plan prepared by qualified professionals.
