I have an Ouachita, in my oppinion they have more... "look" to them and are more... i guess fancy would be the word.

Mississippi:
Male 3 ½” – 5”
Female 6" - 10"
One of the most skittish of the map turtles

Ouachita:
Male 3 ½” - 5”
Female 5" - 10 ¾
Very skittish, but they do learn to tolerate people.
