A human bone found on a South Australian beach has been identified as belonging to Jesse Corigliano-Quealey, who went missing from the location last October.
The arm bone was discovered by a man walking along Maslin Beach, 40 kilometres south of Adelaide, on February 16.
The bone has now been examined and has been confirmed using DNA to be Mr Corigliano.
The 30-year-old went missing from the beach on October 9.
Police are not treating his death as suspicious at this time.
The man who discovered the bone had initially taken it home with him, but contacted police after a relative suggested it could be human.
The next morning while searching the beach, officers found what they think is a human rib.
This bone is also being examined by forensic specialists but has yet to be formally linked to the missing man.
The case is being investigated by SA Police's Criminal Investigation Branch, who will prepare a report for the Coroner.
