The male water dragon has a bigger head with more head decorations. The spikes of these decorations are longer then the females and the body itself is more triangular. They also have femoral pores by the vent area going from one thigh to the next kind of like in a V shape. These are more apprarent in males then females and are more waxy and bumpy.
