COMMENTS
"Series-reduced" means that if the tree is rooted at 1, then there is no node with just a single child.
Callan points out that A002792 is an incorrect version of this sequence. - Joerg Arndt, Jul 01 2014

FORMULA
a(n) = A060356(n)/n.
1 = Sum_{n>=0} a(n+1)*(exp(x)-x)^(-n-1)*x^n/n!.
E.g.f.: A(x) = Sum_{n>=0} a(n+1)*x^n/n! satisfies A(x) = exp(x*A(x))/(1+x). - Olivier Gérard, Dec 31 2013 (edited by Gus Wiseman, Dec 31 2019)
E.g.f.: -Integral (LambertW(-x/(1 + x))/x) dx. - Ilya Gutkovskiy, Jul 01 2020
MATHEMATICA

PROG
(PARI) a(n) = { 1/n * sum(k=1, n, (-1)^(n-k) * binomial(n, k) * (n-1)!/(k-1)! * k^(k-1) ); } \\ Joerg Arndt, Aug 28 2014
