I need to buy a few tubing fittings similar to those shown in this
photo, but my search for them is considerably hampered by not knowing
what they're called. Any help would be appreciated.

The purpose is to make a temporary butt joint between the end of one
tube and the side of another, by attaching with a screw.

"radius tube connectors"

Thanks to all who replied. I think this will put me on the right track.

Yes, I could get them from the manufacturer of the parts in the photo, but I need them sooner
than I'm likely to get them that way. If I can't find a local source, I need to make my own.

Fence-post fittings are too large; the tubing in the photo is 7/8" OD.

Looks like pretty thin wall. Maybe force a 7/8 OD wooden dowel into it?
