''D. mawii''  It is a relatively large-bodied species, with historical records of {{convert|60|cm|in|abbr=on}} straight [[carapace]] length and weights of {{convert|22|kg|lb|abbr=on}}; however, more recent records have found few individuals over {{convert|14|kg|lb|abbr=on}} in Mexico or {{convert|11|kg|lb|abbr=on}} in Guatemala. It has a low, flattened, smooth [[Turtle Shell#Carapace|carapace]] with a median keel present in juveniles, it is usually a uniform brown, almost black, grey or olive in colour.<ref name=vogtetal /> The [[Turtle Shell#Plastron|plastron]] is usually white to yellow, though may acquire substrate staining in some areas. In juveniles, a distinctive keel is found down the centre of the carapace,<ref name=vogtetal /> and the outer edges have serrations. These features are lost as the turtle ages. Its skin is predominantly the same colour as the shell, with reddish or peach-coloured markings around the neck and underside.

Adult males can often be differentiated from females by yellow (although sometimes cream or reddish-brown) markings on the top of their heads, as opposed to the uniformly dull-coloured heads of females,<ref name=tsa2010>{{cite magazine |last1=Rainwater |first1=T. |last2=Pop |first2=T. |last3=Cal |first3=O. |last4=Platt |first4=S. |last5=Hudson |first5=R. |date=August 2010 |title=Catalyzing Conservation in Belize for Central America's Imperiled River Turtle |url=http://www.turtlesurvival.org/storage/documents/magazines/TSA_August_2010_final-compressed.pdf |magazine=Turtle Survival Alliance Magazine |page= |publisher=Turtle Survival Alliance |pages=79–82 |access-date=22 November 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101221195057/http://turtlesurvival.org/storage/documents/magazines/TSA_August_2010_final-compressed.pdf |archive-date=21 December 2010}}</ref> and longer, thicker tails.
