In both the Lanthanide and Actinide series, the d shells that fill after the f shells are primes, explaining why only these d shells (beginning with Z = 71 for Lanthanide and Z = 103 for Actinide) are filled with primes because they would normally be f shells in the sequence if we looked strictly at observed spectroscopic data.
