More generally, for fixed parameters p, q, r, and s, if F(x) satisfies:
F(x) = exp( Sum_{n>=1} x^(n*r)*F(x)^(n*p)/n * [Sum_{k=0..n} C(n,k)^2 * x^(k*s)*F(x)^(k*q)] ),
then F(x) = (1 + x^r*F(x)^(p+1))*(1 + x^(r+s)*F(x)^(p+q+1)).

FORMULA
G.f. satisfies:
(1) A(x) = exp( Sum_{n>=1} [Sum_{k=0..n} C(n,k)^2 * x^k*A(x)^(n-k)] * x^n/n ).
(2) A(x) = exp( Sum_{n>=1} [(1-x/A(x))^(2*n+1)*Sum_{k>=0} C(n+k,k)^2*x^k/A(x)^k )] * x^n*A(x)^n/n.
(3) A(x) = x / Series_Reversion( x*G(x) ) where G(x) is the g.f. of A199876.
(4) A(x) = G(x/A(x)) where G(x) = A(x*G(x)) is the g.f. of A199876.

EXAMPLE
G.f.: A(x) = 1 + x + 3*x^2 + 9*x^3 + 30*x^4 + 108*x^5 + 406*x^6 + 1577*x^7 +...
Related expansions:
A(x)^2 = 1 + 2*x + 7*x^2 + 24*x^3 + 87*x^4 + 330*x^5 + 1289*x^6 +...
A(x)^3 = 1 + 3*x + 12*x^2 + 46*x^3 + 180*x^4 + 720*x^5 + 2928*x^6 +...
where A(x) = 1 + x*A(x)^2 + x^2*A(x) + x^3*A(x)^3.
The logarithm of the g.f. A = A(x) equals the series:
log(A(x)) = (A + x)*x + (A^2 + 2^2*x*A + x^2)*x^2/2 +
(A^3 + 3^2*x*A^2 + 3^2*x^2*A + x^3)*x^3/3 +
(A^4 + 4^2*x*A^3 + 6^2*x^2*A^2 + 4^2*x^3*A + x^4)*x^4/4 +
(A^5 + 5^2*x*A^4 + 10^2*x^2*A^3 + 10^2*x^3*A^2 + 5^2*x^4*A + x^5)*x^5/5 +
(A^6 + 6^2*x*A^5 + 15^2*x^2*A^4 + 20^2*x^3*A^3 + 15^2*x^4*A^2 + 6^2*x^5*A + x^6)*x^6/6 +...
more explicitly,
log(A(x)) = x + 5*x^2/2 + 19*x^3/3 + 77*x^4/4 + 331*x^5/5 + 1445*x^6/6 + 6392*x^7/7 + 28565*x^8/8 +...
