Corpseless monsters are those that never leave corpses—such corpses simply do not exist, and cannot be formed by any means:

Nevertheless, it is possible to eat a corpseless monster by swallowing it live and digesting it, for example if you or your pet is a purple worm. Doing so yields no nutrition,[1] confers no intrinsics, and does not break vegan conduct.

Internally, corpseless monsters are tagged with G_NOCORPSE, but the flag is also used in cases of special corpse generation, as with mummies or golems.[2]
