Abstract
► We examined the role of acoustic and nonacoustic signals in house cricket mate choice. ► We measured female preferences for male traits in the presence and absence of acoustic signals. ► Females had lower latency to mount when presented with a large male, regardless of male song quality. ► Females assessed male size using both acoustic and nonacoustic signals.
