Let $\mathcal{T}^{(p)}_n$ be the set of p-ary labeled trees on $\{1,2,{\ldots},n\}$. A maximal decreasing subtree of an p-ary labeled tree is defined by the maximal p-ary subtree from the root with all edges being decreasing. In this paper, we study a new refinement $\mathcal{T}^{(p)}_{n,k}$ of $\mathcal{T}^{(p)}_n$, which is the set of p-ary labeled trees whose maximal decreasing subtree has k vertices.
