%N Numbers n not of the form i^2+(i+1)^2 such that there are integers a < b with a^2+(a+1)^2+...+(n-1)^2 = n^2+(n+1)^2+...+b^2.

%C When n=i^2+(i+1)^2, then a=n-i-1 and b=n+i-1 is a solution. See A094553.

%e 35 is in this sequence because 18^2+19^2+...+34^2 = 35^2+36^2+...+42^2 and 35 is not the sum of two consecutive squares.
