Cities are growing rapidly, thereby expected to cause a large-scale global biotic
homogenization. Evidence for the homogenization hypothesis is mostly derived from plants
and birds, whereas arthropods have so far been neglected. Here, I tested the
homogenization hypothesis with three insect indicator groups, namely true bugs,
leafhoppers, and beetles. In particular, I was interested whether insect species community
composition differs between urban and rural areas, whether they are more similar
