COMMENTS
Old name was: A061684 appears to count the periodic points for a certain map. If so, then this is the sequence of the numbers of orbits of length n.

FORMULA
If b(n) is the (n+1)th term in A061684, then a(n) = (1/n)*Sum_{d|n}mu(d)b(n/d).
EXAMPLE
The sequence A061684 begins 1,1,5,64,1613, so a(3)=(b(3)-b(1))/3=21.
