A357655 Total number of nodes summed over all lattice paths from (0,0) to (i,n-2*i) that do not go above the diagonal x=y using steps in {(1,0), (0,1)}.

1, 0, 2, 3, 3, 8, 14, 15, 35, 59, 69, 147, 245, 300, 608, 1005, 1269, 2489, 4091, 5280, 10120, 16565, 21735, 40950, 66820, 88815, 165125, 268785, 361005, 664108, 1078904, 1461609, 2665617, 4323643, 5899917, 10682712, 17304516, 23759955, 42759385, 69187281

Mathematica
