COMMENTS
A k-ary cactus is a planar k-gonal cactus with vertices on each polygon numbered 1..k counterclockwise with shared vertices having the same number. In total there are always exactly k ways to number a given cactus since all polygons are connected. See the reference for a precise definition. - Andrew Howroyd, Feb 18 2020

FORMULA
T(n,k) = (Sum_{d|n} mu(n/d)*binomial(k*d, d))/n - (k-1)*binomial(k*n, n)/((k-1)*n+1)) for n > 0.
