%F A268567 a(n) = A054993(n)*(n-1)!/2 [proof: in a long curve, label the first (leftmost) crossing by #1 and the rest by whatever, in (n-1)! ways; then each labeled oriented spherical closed curve corresponds to precisely 2 such labeled long curves, depending on which of the 2 edges going into vertex #1 is chosen to be "long"]. - _Andrey Zabolotskiy_, Jan 14 2025
