Formula

For n > 1, a(n) = A001679(n) - A001678(n).

Example

The a(4) = 1 through a(9) = 10 trees:
  (ooo)  (oooo)  (ooooo)   (oooooo)   (ooooooo)    (oooooooo)
                 (oo(oo))  (oo(ooo))  (oo(oooo))   (oo(ooooo))
                           (ooo(oo))  (ooo(ooo))   (ooo(oooo))
                                      (oooo(oo))   (oooo(ooo))
                                      (o(oo)(oo))  (ooooo(oo))
                                      (oo(o(oo)))  (o(oo)(ooo))
                                                   (oo(o(ooo)))
                                                   (oo(oo)(oo))
                                                   (oo(oo(oo)))
                                                   (ooo(o(oo)))
