COMMENTS
For any n, there is no solution to a(n) = A005185(x). Does lim_{n -> infinity} a(n)/n exist?
Plotting a(n)/n for the first 6 billion terms, it appears to be converging to ~7.39. - Benjamin Chaffin, Sep 17 2019

a[1] = a[2] = 1; a[n_] := a[n] = a[n - a[n - 1]] + a[n - a[n - 2]]; t = Table[a[n], {n, 1000}]; Take[ Complement[ Range@ 502, Union@ t], 56]
