A knight anole with pinkish-white dewlap visible Adult knight anoles are about 13–20 in (33–51 cm) in total length, including their tail that is longer than the head-and-body, [ 2 ] and weigh 0.56–4.83 oz (16–137 g).
Female anoles do, however, often have a dorsal line down their back. Extension of the dewlap from the throat is used for communication. Males can form a pronounced dorsal ridge behind the head when displaying or when under stress. Females and juveniles have a prominent white stripe running along their spine, a feature most males lack.

Dominican anoles are capable of slight color change, but not as much as some other anoles. [16] Their ground color varies from pale tan or ash gray to deep brown or green.
