Equivalently, this is the number of "hypertrees" on n labeled nodes, i.e. connected hypergraphs that have no cycles, assuming that each edge contains at least two vertices. - Don Knuth, Jan 26 2008. See A134954 for hyperforests.
Also number of labeled connected graphs where every block is a complete graph (cf. A035053).
Let H = (V,E) be the complete hypergraph on N labeled vertices (all edges having cardinality 2 or greater). Let e in E and K = |e|. Then the number of distinct spanning trees of H that contain edge e is g(N,K) = K * E[X_N^{N-K}] / N and the K=1 case gives this sequence. Clearly there is some deep structural connection between spanning trees in hypergraphs and Poisson moments.
