A341083 Value of prime number D for incrementally largest values of minimal x satisfying the equation x^2 - D*y^2 = -5. 3

Analogous to A033316 for x^2 - D*y^2 = 1, and D is required to be prime, and for record values of x.

EXAMPLE
For D=29, the least x for which x^2 - D*y^2 = -5 has a solution is 16. The next prime, D, for which x^2 - D*y^2 = -5 has a solution is 41, but the smallest x in this case is 6, which is less than 16. The next prime, D, after 41 for which x^2 - D*y^2 = -5 has a solution is 61 and the least x for which it has a solution is 164, which is larger than 16, so it is a new record value. So 29 is a term of this sequence and 16 is the corresponding term of A341084, but 41 is not a term here because the least x for which x^2 - D*y^2 = -5 has a solution is not a record value.
From Jon E. Schoenfield, Feb 20 2021: (Start)
As D runs through the primes, the minimal x values satisfying the equation x^2 - D*y^2 = -5 begin as follows:

The record high minimal values of x (marked with asterisks) are the terms of A341084. The corresponding values of D are the terms of this sequence. (End)
