Natural selection and isolation are both important for understanding the geographic distribution of marine species and environmental responses to changing climate. In this study, we revealed distinct genetic variation in Crassostrea ariakensis by comparing the COI gene segment sequence in northern and southern oysters partitioned by the Yangtze River estuary. Reciprocal hybridization and intrapopulation crosses clarified their taxonomic status as the same species. There was no heterosis in the survival and growth of the hybrids, while the maternal effect was observed in larvae from eggs in the native habitat that showed higher fitness. Both the northern and southern F-1 progenies exhibited positive performance in fitness traits, including survivorship, respiration rate, and growth, in their native habitats compared to that in their non-native habitats, indicating a strong signature of local adaptation. The oysters dwelling in the warm/southern habitats evolved a higher thermotolerance of LT50, while the oysters inhabiting the high-salinity/northern habitats had a 2.43 parts per thousand higher LS50 than that of their southern counterparts. After strong natural selection in the northern environments, the higher survival of the F-1 progenies from the southern oysters under heat shock indicates an evolved genetic basis for its higher thermal tolerance. Strong environmental gradients, especially for temperature and salinity, and geographic isolation by the interaction between coastal currents and the Yangtze River estuary potentially contribute to shaping the distribution pattern and adaptive divergence of C. ariakensis in China.
