That happens when a werebeast shows up, but is untransformed, or maybe they change back to untransformed state before actually getting into the fort, which reveals them.

In any case, it's a werebeast, not a megabeast or semi-megabeast. Although some werebeast forms could be considered semi-megas. You can also get reptilemen and cavefishmen and the like as werebeasts.

An incredible helpful answer to a poorly spelt and articulated question.
I thank you.

It took me a few go arounds to realize that after you severely injure or kill a werebeast, it reverts to the corpse of the race it was.  It took some combat log parsing and kill list snooping.  But now I have a hammerdwarf nicknamed "Werebane" because he is so darn good at killing the things.
