Abstract: We consider matrices with entries that are polynomials in arising from natural -generalisations of two well-known formulas that count: forests on vertices with components; and trees on vertices where children of the root are smaller than the root. We give a combinatorial interpretation of the corresponding statistic on forests and trees and show, via the construction of various planar networks and the Lindstr"om-Gessel-Viennot lemma, that these matrices are coefficientwise totally positive. We also exhibit generalisations of the entries of these matrices to polynomials in emph{eight} indeterminates, and present some conjectures concerning the coefficientwise Hankel-total positivity of their row-generating polynomials.
