Townsville South was an electoral district of the Legislative Assembly in the Australian state of Queensland from 1960 to 1986.[1]

It covered the southern suburbs of the North Queensland city of Townsville, largely replacing the abolished district of Mundingburra.

Townsville South was abolished in the 1985 redistribution, and its territory mostly transferred to the new district of Townsville East.[2]
