The city is a complex and dynamic territorial space comprising several processes related to urbanization, resulting in the reduction of its green areas. In this context, the squares become one of the best options in an attempt to provide a balance between nature and cities. The survey was carried out to analyze the floristic composition and the phytosociological structure of urban trees in the main squares in the city of Nossa Senhora do Socorro – SE, to contribute with more information for planning and management of these environments. To carry out the analysis of the vegetation a census in 21 squares of the city was taken. The identification of tree species was realized by collecting botanical material, making herbarium specimens and consulting specialized literature. For the phytosociological analysis the diameter at breast height (DBH), at 1.30 m from the floor, and total height of each individual were measured and the data was processed in the Native Forest 2 software. A total of 271 individuals belonging to 17 species, distributed in 12 botanical families and 17 genera were registered. Of the species found, 70.5% are exotic and 29.5% are native.
