Temperate. There would be potential for trees because the warmest month tree line would be very low in such a climate, probably 8 C / 46.4 F or so...

I would say that this climate would be Non existent. If I had to choose from the following you have given me I would choose cool temperate.

If it actually existed, it could only be high altitude equatorial. Only equatorial climates could have such a low temperature variation.

According to my personal climate rating system, this climate is rated "ass".

Eureka, CA is at 40 N and has very, very little seasonal variation with an all time record high in July being lower than any other all time record high for any other month. Eureka, California - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This.
Tropical Highland.
The closest would an equatorial peak, constantly beaten by the winds and isolated from virtually any warming/cooling surface which could provide a bigger daily thermal range.

Look at this place:

Very high elevation on the Equator (eg near Mt Cameroon), but probably still just temperate as opposed to subpolar.

Eureka has an impressively low 5C of seasonal range (lowest in NZ is about 6.2C), but still quite a bit more than the OPs climate. July in Eureka having the coldest record maximum is weird. Despite being at the same latitude as Eureka, and being right on the coast, I don't feel much similarity between my climate and Eureka's. When I visited Eureka (several times), it reminded of the southwest of the South Island.

Yep, that's what I'm talking about.
