Compare g.f. to: C( C(x)^2 - C(x)^4 ) = C(x)^2 and C( C(x) - C(x)^2 ) = C(x) where C(x) = x + C(x)^2 is a g.f. of the Catalan numbers (A000108).

The series reversion of g.f. A(x) equals A(x^2-x^3)/x, which begins:
A(x^2-x^3)/x = x - x^2 + x^3 - 2*x^4 + 2*x^5 - 3*x^6 + 5*x^7 - 9*x^8 + 18*x^9 - 38*x^10 + 79*x^11 - 162*x^12 + 330*x^13 - 661*x^14 + 1323*x^15 - 2661*x^16 + 5392*x^17 - 11037*x^18 + 22802*x^19 - 47447*x^20 + 99238*x^21 - 208283*x^22 +...
