Each row is a permutation of natural numbers and occurs only once. The table is closed with regards to the composition of its rows (see A089839) and it contains the inverse of each (their positions are shown in A089843). The permutations in table form an enumerable subgroup of the group of all size-preserving "Catalan bijections" (bijections among finite unlabeled rooted plane binary trees). The order of each element is shown at A089842.

Row n is the signature permutation of the Catalan automorphism which is obtained from the n-th nonrecursive automorphism in the table A089840 with the recursion scheme "INORDER". In this recursion scheme the given automorphism is applied at the root of binary tree after the algorithm has recursed down the car-branch (the left hand side tree in the context of binary trees), but before the algorithm recurses down to the cdr-branch (the right hand side of the binary tree, with respect to the new orientation of branches, possibly changed by the applied automorphism). I.e. this corresponds to the depth-first in-order traversal of a Catalan structure, when it is interpreted as a binary tree. The associated Scheme-procedures INORDER and !INORDER can be used to obtain such a transformed automorphism from any constructively (or respectively: destructively) implemented automorphism. Each row occurs only once in this table and similar notes as given e.g. for table A122202 apply here, e.g. the rows of A089840 all occur here as well. This transformation has many fixed points besides the trivial identity automorphism *A001477: at least *A069770, *A089863 and *A129604 stay as they are. Inverses of these permutations can be found in table A130401.

Row n is the signature permutation of the Catalan automorphism which is obtained from the n-th nonrecursive automorphism in the table A089840 with the recursion scheme "REDRONI". In this recursion scheme the given automorphism is applied at the root of binary tree after the algorithm has recursed down the cdr-branch (the right hand side tree in the context of binary trees), but before the algorithm recurses down to the car-branch (the left hand side of the binary tree, with respect to the new orientation of branches, possibly changed by the applied automorphism). I.e. this corresponds to the reversed depth-first in-order traversal of a Catalan structure, when it is interpreted as a binary tree. The associated Scheme-procedures REDRONI and !REDRONI can be used to obtain such a transformed automorphism from any constructively (or respectively: destructively) implemented automorphism. Each row occurs only once in this table and similar notes as given e.g. for table A122202 apply here, e.g. the rows of A089840 all occur here as well. This transformation has many fixed points besides the trivial identity automorphism *A001477: at least *A069770, *A089859 and *A129604 stay as they are. Inverses of these permutations can be found in table A130400.

Recursive transformation ENIPS for Catalan bijections has a well-defined inverse (see the definition & comments at A122204). For all Catalan bijections in A089840 that inverse produces a bijection which is itself in A089840. This sequence gives the indices to those positions where each ("primitive", non-recursive bijection) of A089840(n) occurs "atavistically" amongst the more complex recursive bijections in A122204. I.e. A122204(a(n)) = A089840(n). Similarly, other "atavistic forms" resurface as: A122287(a(n)) = A122201(n), A122286(a(n)) = A122203(n) and A122202(a(n)) = A122284(n). See also comments at A153833.

There exists similar atavistic index sequences computed for FORK (A122201) and KROF (A122202). Both start as 0,1654720,... (see A129604). This implies that regardless of how complex recursive derivations from A089840 one forms by repeatedly applying SPINE, ENIPS, FORK and/or KROF in some order (finite number of times), all the original primitive non-recursive elements of A089840 will eventually appear at some positions.
