Key findings:
Butterfly communities were surveyed across an urban gradient in Montréal, Quebec, Canada.
Urban butterfly communities were homogenized at both the taxonomic and functional levels.
At the taxonomic level, urban communities were dominated by a few, highly abundant, non-native species. At the functional level, urban communities included more species with longer flight periods.
