The aim of this study is determined to compare the epiphytic lichen diversity of Quercus pubescens found in the center of the city or village, and away from the center. The ordination graph based on the settlements of species diversity located in the center of the city or village and away from the center were obtained with a detrended correspondence analysis (DCA). Differences in the species diversity and composition of the epiphytic lichens on Q. pubescens in the center of the city or village, and away from the center were evaluated using the TWINSPAN program. In this study, a total of 28 epiphytic lichen species were found on the Quercus pubescens. Eopyrenula leucoplaca was found in all the localities in the study area. The other common species were Hyperphyscia adglutinata, Physconia grisea and Xanthoria parietina. The epiphytic lichen diversity on Q. pubescens obtained from the localities in Bursa city center, and village center from Karacabey Plain comparative to the localities in the peripheral zone of Bursa city center and Karacabey Plain has shown variations.
