This automorphism effects the following transformation on the unlabeled rooted plane binary trees (letters A, B, C refer to arbitrary subtrees located on those nodes and () stands for an implied terminal node).
...B...C...........A...B
....\./.............\./
.A...x....-->....C...x.................A..().........A...()..
..\./.............\./...................\./....-->....\./...
...x...............x.....................x.............x....
(a . (b . c)) -> (c . (a . b)) ______ (a . ()) ---> (a . ())
In terms of S-expressions, this automorphism rotates car, cadr and cddr of an S-exp if its length > 1.
See the Karttunen OEIS-Wiki link for a detailed explanation of how to obtain a given integer sequence from this definition.
