Environment & Ecology
This term appears a number of times, here is an example:
A ciò si aggiunge l’abbandono della popolazione e la riduzione delle attività agricole nelle aree rurali, con la conseguente diminuzione della manutenzione dei suoli agricoli e l’aumento del degrado ambientale dovuto a dissesti, frane, incendi, squilibri idrogeologici e l’aggressione delle aree a “naturalità diffusa”, unica connessione con gli ecosistemi del contesto esterno al parco.

biodiverse urban areas
According to this presentation (see reference), they are urban areas with a high level of biodiversity. I can't think of a specific term in English off the top of my head.

(natural) buffer zones
For aree di naturalità diffusa. Wikipedia quotes:
"For use in nature conservation, a buffer zone is often created to enhance the protection of areas under management for their biodiversity importance".
"A buffer zone is intended to avert the effect of negative environmental or human influences, whether or not it embodies great natural or cultural value itself. The importance and function of a buffer zone and the necessary protective measures derived thereof is a relatively new concept in conservation science and can differ greatly for each site".

: Maybe, although a buffer zone is a strip of land between a managed area and another land use, whereas I think the original text refers to areas integrated into the urban environment
