The answer, running over 100s of words, in my edition.
My impression is that they are balmy, a bit like HK, since moderated
by the ocean, and that they're not that far south. Aren't orangutans and so
on subtropical?

Subject: Tabor
My understanding is that "L'Ile Tabor" or "Maria Theresa" does not
really
exist. If this is true, are there any islands in the general area
where
Verne locates Tabor and Lincoln Islands?
What sort of climate and ecology do any such islands have (or what
sort of
climate and ecology would we expect to find on an island in that
general
area?)? My impression is that this area is to the south of the horse
latitudes, so it ought to have pronounced seasons and some antarctic
climatic influence. But I don't know this for certain. Who does?
Tom
