Abstract
► We assessed limiting factors for beetles during grassland restoration. ► Success in replicating beetle assemblages reaches a plateau after 20 years. ► Restoration is dependent on seed addition to promote host-plants establishment. ► Dispersal traits and degree of host plant specialisation limit colonisation. ► Food web connectance decreases during restoration.
