Number of non-isomorphic blobs of weight n.

COMMENTS
A blob is a connected antichain of finite sets that cannot be capped by a hypertree with more than one branch. The weight of a blob is the sum of cardinalities of its elements. Weight is generally not the same as number of vertices (see A275307).

EXAMPLE
Non-isomorphic representatives of the a(8) = 8 blobs are the following:
{{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8}}
{{1,5,6},{2,3,4,5,6}}
{{1,2,5,6},{3,4,5,6}}
{{1,3,4,5},{2,3,4,5}}
{{1,2},{1,3,4},{2,3,4}}
{{1,4},{1,5},{2,3,4,5}}
{{2,4},{1,2,5},{3,4,5}}
{{1,2},{1,3},{2,4},{3,4}}
