The article discusses the consequences of damage to the horse chestnut (Aesculus hippocastanum L.) by the horse chestnut leaf miners (Cameraria ohridella Deschka & Dimic) in an urbanized environment. It is proposed to use Turkish hazel (Corylus colurna L.) to replace horse chestnut in single and group plantings, as well as for landscaping roads and streets and creating park alleys.
