The 1885 Southern Maori by-election was a by-election held on 10 June 1885 in the Southern Maori electorate during the 9th New Zealand Parliament. The by-election was caused by the resignation of the incumbent, Hōri Kerei Taiaroa, when he was re-appointed to the Legislative Council. Taiaroa had been appointed to the Legislative Council in February 1879, but in August 1880 he was disqualified over a technicality, a cause of bitterness and resentment among Māori. When appointed by Sir George Grey, Taiaroa held a salaried (government) office, hence was not eligible to sit in the Council, despite having attended three sessions. The by-election was won by Tame Parata.
