Here, we use whole\u2010genome resequencing of the Western Hercules beetle (\n                    <jats:italic>Dynastes grantii<\/jats:italic>\n                    Horn, 1870) across four primary lineages to characterize the genomic consequences of habitat fragmentation and climate\u2010driven isolation. Population structure analyses revealed strong hierarchical genetic differentiation consistent with isolation\u2010by\u2010distance, while ABBA\u2010BABA tests detected little to no evidence of post\u2010divergence gene flow among lineages. Coalescent modelling revealed synchronous demographic expansions during the Last Glacial Period followed by severe Holocene contractions across all lineages, with the Utah population experiencing the most pronounced bottleneck and maintaining persistently low effective population size (\n                    <jats:italic>N<\/jats:italic>\n                    <jats:sub>e<\/jats:sub>\n                    ).

Genomic\u2010environment association analyses identified 1367 high\u2010confidence candidate loci associated with precipitation seasonality, with precipitation of the wettest quarter driving the strongest signal of polygenic adaptation. Monsoon moisture regimes are the primary selective axis shaping genomic divergence. Genetic offset projections identified Mt. Lemmon as the most vulnerable population under future climate scenarios, and genetic rescue donor analyses identified population\u2010specific sources for assisted gene flow. Our results demonstrate how integrating demographic inference, divergence genomics and landscape genomics with whole\u2010genome data, including historical museum specimens, can simultaneously advance understanding of evolutionary history and inform actionable conservation strategies in the future.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/mec.70551","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,26]],"date-time":"2026-09-26T04:55:52Z","timestamp":1790398552000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Differential Demographic Trajectories and Polygenic Adaptation to Monsoon Seasonality in Sky Island Hercules Beetle Populations of the American Southwest"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"35","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0005-0891-6587","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sean","family":"Chien","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Texas A&amp;M University  College Station Texas USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"My\u2010Hanh","family":"Le","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Biodiversity Research Center, Academia Sinica  Taipei Taiwan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5433-4036","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Heath","family":"Blackmon","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Texas A&amp;M University  College Station Texas USA"},{"name":"Ecology and Evolutionary Biology IDP Texas A&amp;M University  College Station Texas USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9329-8867","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jen\u2010Pan","family":"Huang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Biodiversity Research Center, Academia Sinica  Taipei Taiwan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_10_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1101\/gr.094052.109"},{"key":"e_1_2_10_3_1","volume-title":"PACKRAT MIDDENS: The Last 40,000\u2009Years of Biotic Change","author":"Betancourt J.
