You can use os.path.splitext to split a filename string into the filename and the extension.

from os.path import join, splitext    

onlyfiles = [splitext(f)[0] for f in listdir(src_dir) if isfile(join(src_dir,f)) ]

Note that splitext will effectively split at the "final" extension. So if you had a filename "filename.pdf.txt" it will split it into ("filename.pdf", "txt").
