- Motivated by their research on automorphism groups of pseudo-real Riemann surfaces, Bujalance, Cirre and Conder have conjectured that there are infinitely many primes $p$ such that $p+2$ has all its prime factors $q\equiv -1$ mod~$(4)$. We use theorems of Landau and Raikov to prove that the number of integers $n\le x$ with only such prime factors $q$ is asymptotic to $cx/\sqrt{\ln x}$ for a specific constant $c=0.4865\ldots$. Heuristic arguments, following Hardy and Littlewood, then yield a conjecture that the number of such primes $p\le x$ is asymptotic to $c'\int_2^x(\ln t)^{-3/2}dt$ for a constant $c'=0.8981\ldots$. The theorem, the conjecture and a similar conjecture applying the Bateman--Horn Conjecture to other pseudo-real Riemann surfaces are supported by evidence from extensive computer searches.
