Ciarán Cassidy, an Irish citizen, had been missing since he left his home to take the train to work in central London last Thursday morning. Police said he died in the bomb attack on the Tube at Russell Square.
Mr Cassidy's family is originally from Cavan.
Several inquests, including Mr Cassidy's, were opened at a hearing in London today. Inner North London coroner Dr Andrew Reid told the hearing that the victims were identified primarily by dental records.
The inquests were adjourned while police investigations continue into the bomb attacks that left at least 52 people dead.
A New Zealand woman, who was thought to be travelling on an Irish passport, was also reported missing and has yet to be found.
