Table of n, a(n) for n=0..8.

Jason Kimberley, Index of sequences counting connected k-regular simple graphs with girth exactly g

Formula

a(n) = A014377(n) - A181153(n).

Example

a(0)=0 because even though the null graph (on zero vertices) is vacuously 7-regular and connected, since it is acyclic, it has infinite girth.
The a(4)=1 complete graph on 8 vertices is 7-regular; it has 28 edges and 56 triangles.

Mathematica

A[s_Integer] := With[{s6 = StringPadLeft[ToString[s], 6, "0"]}, Cases[ Import["https://oeis.org/A" <> s6 <> "/b" <> s6 <> ".txt", "Table"], {_, _}][[All, 2]]];
A014377 = A@014377;
A181153 = A@181153;
a[n_] := A014377[[n + 1]] - A181153[[n + 1]];
a /@ Range[0, 8] (* Jean-François Alcover, Jan 27 2020 *)
