Listeria seeligeri is a species of bacteria. It is a Gram-positive, facultatively anaerobic, motile, non-spore-forming bacillus. It is non-pathongenic. The species was first isolated from plants, soil, and animal feces in Europe. The species was first proposed in 1983, and is named after Heinz P. R. Seeliger. Seeliger first proposed the species L. ivanovii, and published extensively on members of the Listeria genus.

L. seeligeri is one of only 3 species of Listeria that is hemolytic, along with L. ivanovii and L. monocytogenes.
