FORMULA
E.g.f.: ((x*c(x/2)*(1-2*x)^(-1/2))^8)/8!, where c(x) = g.f. for Catalan numbers A000108, a(0) := 0.
E.g.f.: (-1+(1-2*x)^(-1/2))^8/8!.
EXAMPLE
a(9)=108=3*binomial(9,2) increasing ternary 8-forest with n=9 vertices: there are three 8-forests (seven 1-vertex trees together with any of the three different 2-vertex trees) each with binomial(9,2)= 36 increasing labelings.
