Just for the fun of it I checked the SIMBAD database to see whether there are any PN south of this one, no matter how faint or insignificant...
The only object it returned was ESO 011-01, listed as a 'possible PN' at RA 20h35.5m, Dec -83°03' - 'possible' in this case probably means 'not a galaxy'.
So I guess that makes NGC 3195 indeed the southernmost
confirmed PN...
