Thanks, that's right. I changed my test to:
convex, with a complete top row (extends over the entire width), and a
bottom row that starts a bit to the right of the top row and finishes a bit
to the left, and a perimeter that forms a self-avoiding polygon of bracelet
length 8.
Now I get the same figures.

Don. For a(8) I think you're missing
