The Americans just captured Tahiti, which was the only remaining port in the area. This should trigger the conquest of the territory, as Tahiti was the only Axis port in the area. At the very least, Moorea and Tetiaroa should have gone over to US control. When the US captured Hiva Ov, all the adjacent islands switched control, as they should, so I don't know why the Tahiti ones did not.
