Here we investigate genomic variation in three natural populations of an agricultural pest and a model insect for many scientific disciplines, the tobacco hornworm (&lt;em&gt;Manduca sexta&lt;/em&gt;). We show that hornworms from Arizona, Kansas, and North Carolina are genetically distinct, with Arizona being particularly differentiated from the other two populations. Specifically, two segregating inversions and a potential pseudogene are found only in the Arizona population. One inversion on the Z chromosome may enhance adaptive evolution of the sex chromosome, while the significance of the other, autosomal inversion remains unclear. The pseudogene may be involved in the exploitation of a novel hostplant in Arizona, but functional genetic assays will be required to confirm this hypothesis. Nevertheless, our results reveal undiscovered natural variation and provide useful genomic data for a model insect species.&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;
