%N Number of connected graphs on n unlabeled nodes with exactly 2 cycles joined along two or more edges but not more than half each cycle and all nodes having degree at most 4.

%C The resulting graph will actually have three cycles. See A121331 for the special case of all three cycles having the same length.

%C Equivalently, the number of connected simple graphs with n unlabeled nodes and n + 1 edges and all nodes having degree at most 4 (A112410) less those graphs described by A125669, A125670 and A125671.
