Police have identified the body of a man recovered from the water at Shaw's Bridge on Friday 14th July.
Detectives had re-issued an appeal for information one week on after the discovery.
The man had no identification, was not wearing any distinctive jewellery, or did not have any tattoos or piercings.
Police say the only distinctive marks he had were two compression bandages on his left upper arm, and an appendix scar.
At the time police said the victim was approximately in his fifties, around 5' 8" in height and was wearing a black t-shirt, navy blue jeans, a distinctive dark coloured belt with a sliver rectangular buckle, and navy trainers in a men's size 10.
D.I. Richard Norton from the PSNI thanked the public for their assistance and hope the family could now get some closure.
His death is not being treated as suspicious.
