## TL;DR

This paper presents draft genomes of six staphylococcus strains isolated from urine samples of women with urinary tract symptoms.

## Contribution

The novel contribution is the draft genome sequencing of one S. haemolyticus and five S. lugdunensis strains from catheterized urine samples.

## Key findings

- Draft genomes of five S. lugdunensis and one S. haemolyticus strains were sequenced.
- The strains were isolated from catheterized urine samples of females with lower urinary tract symptoms.

## Abstract

Although Staphylococcus haemolyticus and Staphylococcus lugdunensis are members of the normal human flora, they also can cause infection. Here, we present the draft genomes of five strains of S. lugdunensis and one strain of S. haemolyticus isolated from transurethral catheterized urine samples from different females experiencing lower urinary tract symptoms.
