Emergency services were called to the scene after a member of the public made the horror find.
Officers have now confirmed that the remains have been identified as belonging to Graham Wright.
The 38-year-old man had previously been reported missing from Glasgow.
He was last seen around noon on Wednesday, 20 August, in the Cumberland Street area of the city.
He was then reported missing to police five days later on Monday, 25 August, but was possibly seen in the same area on Friday, 5 September, at around 9.30am.
Police have said Graham’s family has been informed and they are being supported by specially trained officers.
The death is being treated as unexplained.
We previously told how Police Scotland’s major investigation team is now leading the probe in order to establish if the death is suspicious.
Murder cops, detectives and local officers are being supported by specialist resources.
Sniffer dogs, air support units, and divers from the marine unit are all involved in the investigation as it continues.
Officers have said that extensive enquiries are ongoing, and they have urged anyone with any information to come forward.
Detective Superintendent Peter Sharp said: “Our thoughts are with Graham’s family and friends at this extremely difficult time and they are being supported by specialist officers.
“It is vital we get answers for them and extensive enquiries are ongoing to establish how his remains came to be on the shore of Loch Lomond.
“A dedicated team of officers are carrying out investigations, including door-to-door enquiries and examining all available CCTV footage in the area.
“The area can be busy with visitors and dog walkers, and I would urge anyone who was staying in the area to come forward, as any piece of information, no matter how small or insignificant you think it is, could prove vital.
“Please think back – do you remember seeing anything out of the ordinary whilst in the area?
“I am also keen to hear from anyone who was driving in the area, specifically on the A82, between Monday, 1 September, 2025 and Saturday, 13 September, 2025, as you may have dashcam footage that could help our investigation.
“We are also appealing for information from anyone who was onboard a boat, or any other vessel, or anyone who may have been using the water near to Firkin Point for any purpose around this time. If you have information or CCTV, or could help with our investigation please come forward.
“A significant amount of resources have been dedicated to this investigation and searches of the area will continue.
“Please be reassured we are doing everything we can to get answers and there will be a large police presence as these enquiries continue.”
Superintendent Mark Stirling said: “I would like to extend my sympathies to Graham’s family and friends as they try to come to terms with their loss.
“We understand the significant impact this will have on the local community and I would like to thank everyone for their help so far.
“We will have additional patrols in the area to offer reassurance, this includes uniformed and plain-clothed officers from the local division, as well as national resources.
“If anyone has any concerns, or information, please speak to officers.”
Anyone with information can contact Police Scotland on 101, quoting incident number 1400 of Saturday, 13 September, 2025.
