	abstract = {<p>Unlike other known species of crickets, Amphiacusta maya in Central America mates in groups. Experimentally silenced males experience reduced mating success, not owing to decreased receptivity by females, but owing to increased time spent fighting with other males that persistently interrupt silent courtships. Thus, the data indicate that \&quot;courtship\&quot; chirping functions as a warning to other males, rather than as a signal to females.</p>
