COMMENTS
A006791 and this sequence are the same sequence. The correspondence is just that these objects are planar duals of each other. But the offset and step are different: if the cubic graph has 2*n vertices, the dual triangulation has n+2 vertices. - Brendan McKay, May 24 2017
Also the number of 5-connected triangulations on n vertices. - Manfred Scheucher, Mar 17 2023

EXAMPLE
The icosahedron is the smallest triangulation with minimum degree 5 and it doesn't contain any separating 3- or 4-cycles. Examples can easily be seen as 2D and 3D pictures using the program CaGe cited above.
