It can reach 385 mm long. It has a small, rounded head, and colored brown all over, with a lighter ventral surface. The Guadeloupe blind snake (A. guadeloupensis), endemic to Guadeloupe, is sometimes described as a subspecies, A. d. guadeloupensis, with the Dominican population then classified as the nominate subspecies, A. d. dominicanus.
