Maria Theresa Reef
The Maria Theresa Reef is a supposed reef in the South Pacific (south of the French Tuamotu islands and east of New Zealand); it appears to be a phantom reef. It is also known as Tabor Island or Tabor Reef on French maps. Reports Bernhard Krauth explains that Tabor/Maria Theresa's existence was reported in three contemporary newspapers as a dangerous reef seen on 16 November 1843 by a Captain Asaph P. Taber (not "Tabor") of the ''Maria-Theresa'', a New Bedford, Massachusetts, whaler, to be situated at , later adjusted to . According to Krauth, who makes, however, several mistakes, the logbook of the ''Maria Theresa'' may read "Saw breakers."

Krauth further claims that Tabor would be in French waters if it existed. Jean-Paul Faivre reports that map no. 5356 of the (French) Naval Hydrographic Office an ...
