Compared to an average sized common raccoon the Guadeloupe raccoon is small, making it probably an example of insular dwarfism, and its skull delicate. The coat is dark gray with a slight ocher tint on the neck and shoulders. On the underparts only few guard hairs cover the light brown ground hairs.
