Abstract Figs and fig wasps represent one of the most intimate examples of plant–pollinator coevolution. As figs diversified into geographically isolated populations, both figs and fig wasps underwent selective pressures driven by local adaptation and coevolution. Ficus pumila comprises two ecologically distinct varieties: the creeping fig (F. pumila var. pumila), which is widely distributed across the lowlands of East Asia, and the jelly fig (F. pumila var. awkeotsang), endemic to Taiwan and found at mid-elevations. To elucidate how codiversification with fig hosts influences the evolutionary trajectories of fig wasps, we analyzed the genomes of Wiebesia sp. 2 and sp. 3, the respective pollinators of creeping fig and jelly fig. Our demographic analysis indicates that vicariance during the Last Glacial Period facilitated ecological differentiation between these two fig–fig wasp pairs. Through comparative and population genomic analyses, we identified selection signals linked to habitat adaptation, with evolutionary rates corresponding to the life history traits of their host figs. Variations in host preference behavior, chemosensory gene expression, and adaptive duplications in olfactory receptors highlight potential mechanisms for adaptation to host floral scents. These findings collectively underscore how the obligate mutualism between figs and their pollinating wasps allows the ecological traits and habitat preferences of fig hosts to shape the evolutionary pathways of their pollinators, leaving distinct molecular imprints in the fig wasp genomes. This study demonstrates the capacity of tightly intertwined life cycles between plants and pollinators to drive adaptation and diversification.
