This sequence contains those 4k+1 primes p for which the first half (the (p-1)/2 most significant bits) of A055094(p) is in A014486 and those 4k+3 primes q, for which the whole A055094(q) is in A014486.
Are the 2nd, 5th and 8th primes (5,13,37) only terms of this sequence that are of the form 4k+1? [Searched up to a(211)=7927 by AK.]
No other such terms up to 19997. - Michel Marcus, Sep 21 2022
