%N Equivalence classes of clusters of n connected lozenges in the triangular grid.

%C Lozenges are connected in the sense that they share edges, but must not overlap. This is a variant of A056845: Here equivalence considers clusters applying the reduced symmetry point group of C_6, which means clusters that can be mapped by using reflections are distinct (unless they can be mapped by pure rotations...)

%C a(n) grows roughly twice as fast as A056845(n) because at large n the clusters which are mirror-symmetric are only a small set of all clusters.
