We briefly derive the infinite set of multi-point correlation equations based on the Navier-Stokes equations for an incompressible fluid.From this we reconsider the previously derived set of Lie symmetries, i.e. those directly induced by the ones from classical mechanics and also new symmetries.The latter are denoted statistical symmetries and have no direct counterpart in classical mechanics.Finally, we considerably extend the set of symmetries by Lie algebra methods and give the corresponding commutator tables.Due to the infinite dimensionality of the multi-point correlation equations completeness of its symmetries is not proven yet and is still an open question.
