COMMENTS
The set of partitions of n contains n shells (see A135010). Let m and n be two positive integers such that m <= n. It appears that in any set formed by m connected shells, or m disconnected shells, or a mixture of both, the sum of all parts of the j-th column equals the total number of parts >= j in the same set (see example). More generally it appears that any of these sets has the same properties mentioned in A206563 and A207031.
It appears that the last k shells of n contain p(n-k) parts of size k, where p(n) = A000041(n). See also A182703.
FORMULA
T(n,k) = A006128(n) - A006128(n-k).
T(n,k) = Sum_{j=n-k+1..n} A138137(j).
EXAMPLE
For n = 5 the illustration shows five sets containing the last k shells of 5 and below we can see that the sum of all parts of the first column equals the total number of parts in each set:
--------------------------------------------------------
. S{5} S{4-5} S{3-5} S{2-5} S{1-5}
--------------------------------------------------------
. The Last Last Last The
. last two three four five

--------------------------------------------------------

. 5 5 5 5 5

. ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ----------
. 8 14 17 19 20
.
So row 5 lists 8, 14, 17, 19, 20.
