Te Islands (69°3′S 39°34′E) is a three small islands and several rocks lying close together just south of Ongul Island in the Flatvaer Islands. The three main islands were mapped as one by Norwegian cartographers, working from air photos taken by the Lars Christensen Expedition of 1936-37, and named Teoya (the tea island). The Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition (JARE), 1957–62, determined the feature to be a cluster of islands but the name has been retained for the group.
