%F a(n) = A034940(n)/(2n+1).

%F The closed form a(n) = (2n-1)!! (2n+1)^(n-1) can be obtained from the generating function in A034940. - _Noam D. Elkies_, Dec 16 2002

%e a(3) = 5!! * 7^2 = (1*3*5) * 49 = 735.

%e From _Gus Wiseman_, Jan 12 2019: (Start)

%e The a(2) = 15 3-uniform hypertrees:

%e {{1,2,3},{1,4,5}}

%e {{1,2,3},{2,4,5}}

%e {{1,2,3},{3,4,5}}

%e {{1,2,4},{1,3,5}}

%e {{1,2,4},{2,3,5}}

%e {{1,2,4},{3,4,5}}

%e {{1,2,5},{1,3,4}}

%e {{1,2,5},{2,3,4}}

%e {{1,2,5},{3,4,5}}

%e {{1,3,4},{2,3,5}}

%e {{1,3,4},{2,4,5}}

%e {{1,3,5},{2,3,4}}

%e {{1,3,5},{2,4,5}}

%e {{1,4,5},{2,3,4}}

%e {{1,4,5},{2,3,5}}

%e The following are non-isomorphic representatives of the 2 unlabeled 3-uniform hypertrees spanning 7 vertices, and their multiplicities in the labeled case, which add up to a(3) = 735:

%e 105 X {{1,2,7},{3,4,7},{5,6,7}}

%e 630 X {{1,2,6},{3,4,7},{5,6,7}}
