Aberdeen South was a constituency of the Scottish Parliament covering part of the council area of Aberdeen. It elected one Member of the Scottish Parliament (MSP) by the first past the post method of election. Under the additional-member electoral system used for elections to the Scottish Parliament it was one of nine constituencies in the North East Scotland electoral region, which elected seven additional members, in addition to nine constituency MSPs, to produce a form of proportional representation for the region as a whole.
For the 2011 Scottish Parliament election Aberdeen South was replaced by the Aberdeen South and North Kincardine constituency, which also covered part of the council area of Aberdeenshire.
