The Lister Nunatakker are a group of isolated Nunatakkers in East Antarctica Victoria Land . They rise 25 km south-southwest of the Brawn Rocks on the northern foothills of the Priestley Firnfeld .

The United States Geological Survey mapped them using the United States Navy's own surveys and aerial photographs from 1960 to 1964. The Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names named the Nunatakker in 1969 after Larry W. Lister, a crew member on helicopter flights of the VX-6 squadron during the Operation Deep Freeze in 1966, 1967 and 1968.
