Previous name was: Triangle of numbers related to triangle A132057; generalization of Stirling numbers of second kind A008277, Lah-numbers A008297, ...
a(n,m) enumerates unordered n-vertex m-forests composed of m plane increasing 8-ary trees. See the F. Bergeron et al. reference, especially Table 1, first row, for the e.g.f. for m=1.

FORMULA
a(n, m) = n!*A132057(n, m)/(m!*7^(n-m)); a(n+1, m) = (7*n+m)*a(n, m)+ a(n, m-1), n >= m >= 1; a(n, m) := 0, n<m; a(n, 0) := 0, a(1, 1)=1;
E.g.f. of m-th column: ((-1+(1-7*x)^(-1/7))^m)/m!.
