Consider the ranked poset L(n) of partitions defined in A002846, and take the elements of each node modulo 2, collapsing two equivalent nodes into 1. Then a(n) is the total number of paths of all lengths 0,1,...,n-1 that start at (n mod 2)^1 and end at any node in the poset.
Odd-indexed terms are the partial sums of Catalan numbers: A014138.
Even-indexed terms are one less than the following odd-indexed term.
