I am not sure is the johannae here is present in today's HBW Alive.
Is it possible that it is a dedication to Henri Jouan, captain of the frigate Bonite who accompanied Emile Deplanche (1824-1875) French surgeon to New Caledonia? He is mentioned here. Again an -ae ending (woman??). (I am sure Laurent will clarify if it is possible).
Anyway Deplanche is mentioned as well in HBW Alive under deplanchii.
At least the date of death is questionable as I found as well:
See also here but here he died 30 March 1875.

Emile Deplanche, chirurgien de marine, né en 1824, mort à Argentan en 1874, séjourna en Nouvelle-Calédonie en même temps que Vieillard
See also here but here he died 30 March 1875.
