%N Number of planar hexagon trees with n hexagons.

%C Number of nonequivalent dissections of a polygon into n hexagons by nonintersecting diagonals up to rotation and reflection. - _Andrew Howroyd_, Nov 20 2017

%C Number of unoriented polyominoes composed of n hexagonal cells of the hyperbolic regular tiling with Schläfli symbol {6,oo}. A stereographic projection of this tiling on the Poincaré disk can be obtained via the Christensson link. For unoriented polyominoes, chiral pairs are counted as one. - _Robert A. Russell_, Jan 23 2024
