I know eye shape is one. You look and see Asian eyes, they look and see upward slant, downward slant, size/openness. I did have three friends in college who were Asian, and while we didn't discuss race in regards to the question I posed, one was Japanese, one was Korean, and one was Malaysian and they had very different eyes...but to someone who didn't know, they would all be identifiable as Asian eyes.

Good point and to the average non Asian, eyes aren't something that we would tend to notice on first glance.
But I also would tend to think that anyone, not just someone of color would be able to see huge differences between people of African descent because, IMO it's much more noticable than mostly anything else.
