Comments

All twin primes except (3, 5) have one of 3 digital root pairings: {2, 4}, {5, 7} or {8, 1}: see A232881 for {5, 7} and A232882 for {8, 1}.

Or primes congruent to 11 or 13 mod 18 such that the number congruent to 13 or 11 mod 18 is also prime. - Alonso del Arte, Dec 02 2013

Examples

			11 and 13 are in the sequence because they form a twin prime pair in which 11 has a digital root of 2 and 13 has one of 4.
Likewise 29 and 31 form a twin prime pair with 29 has 2 for a digital root and 31 has 4.
