Listeria monocytogenes is the etiological agent of the listeriosis. Here, we described three draft genome sequences of L. monocytogenes isolated in Italy from stranded individuals of the striped dolphin Stenella coeruleoalba. All the genomes have been molecular typed through the multilocus sequence typing to identify the phylogenetic lineage, clonal complex, sublineage, and serogroup.
