%N Unlabeled (cyclic) Motzkin numbers: number of ways of drawing any number of nonintersecting chords joining n unlabeled points equally spaced on a circle, up to rotations of the circle.

%C Unlabeled version of A001006.

%C The number of such chord configurations on 2n vertices with n chords is given by A002995(n+1).
