Data contain ground beetle and vascular plant data collected from 10 urban forest stands, at three edge distances in each stand: 0, 10 and 20 m from the edge toward interior. Half of the stands had been treated with undergrowth removal. Beetle data are numbers of individuals, and plants are average percent covers, per distance x stand. Data contain numbers of individuals and numbers of species of forest, open-habitat and generalist species, and species-level numbers; column names show species with 4+4 letter abbreviations of their scientific names.
