Comment(by arma):

 Yes: those circuits are of type CIRCUIT_PURPOSE_TESTING:
 https://gitweb.torproject.org/tor.git/blob/HEAD:/src/or/or.h#l520

 You may also find circuit_purpose_to_controller_string() interesting:
 https://gitweb.torproject.org/tor.git/blob/HEAD:/src/or/circuitlist.c#l336

 More generally, you should look at the BUILD_FLAGS part of the circuit-
 status, for ONEHOP_TUNNEL and IS_INTERNAL. ONEHOP_TUNNEL might be called
 "dir fetch"; you might call the last hop of an IS_INTERNAL circuit the
 same thing you call the middle hop (depending I guess on what it is); and
 you might call the last hop on a testing circuit "reachability test" or
 "test".
