Also table read by rows: for 0 < k < n, a(n, k) = number of bipartite graphs with n vertices, no isolated vertices and a distinguished bipartite block with k vertices, up to isomorphism.
a(n, k) is the number of isomorphism classes of finite subdirectly irreducible almost distributive lattices in which the N-quotient has k upper covers and (n - k) lower covers. - David Wasserman, Feb 11 2002
Also, row n gives the number of unlabeled bicolored graphs having k nodes of one color and n-k nodes of the other color, with no isolated nodes; the color classes are not interchangeable.

There are 17 bipartite graphs with 6 vertices, no isolated vertices and a distinguished bipartite block with 3 vertices, or equivalently, there are 17 3 X 3 binary matrices with no zero rows or columns, up to row and column permutation:
