Row n lists the parts of the symmetric representation of A008438(n-1).
Also these are the parts from the odd-indexed rows of A237270.
Also these are the parts in the quadrants 1 and 3 of the spiral described in A239660, see example.
Row sums give A008438.
The length of row n is A237271(2n-1).
Both column 1 and the right border are equal to n.
Note that also the sequence can be represented in a quadrant.
We can find the spiral (mentioned above) on the terraces of the stepped pyramid described in A244050. - Omar E. Pol, Dec 07 2016

The figure shows the quadrants 1 and 3 of the spiral described in A239660.
For n = 5 we have that 2*5 - 1 = 9 and the 9th row of A237593 is [5, 2, 2, 2, 2, 5] and the 8th row of A237593 is [5, 2, 1, 1, 2, 5] therefore between both symmetric Dyck paths there are three regions (or parts) of sizes [5, 3, 5], so row 5 is [5, 3, 5], see the third arm of the spiral in the first quadrant.
The sum of divisors of 9 is 1 + 3 + 9 = A000203(9) = 13. On the other hand the sum of the parts of the symmetric representation of sigma(9) is 5 + 3 + 5 = 13, equaling the sum of divisors of 9.
