A direct method of construction of the starter-adder type is used to obtain some new conjugate orthogonal Latin squares. These new constructions combined with erlier results of K. T. Phelps and F. E. Bennett, `Incomplete orthogonal idempotent Latin squares', Discrete Math. (to appear), are used to show that a (3,2,1)- (or (1,3,2)-) conjugate orthogonal Latin square of order v exists for all positive integers \(v\neq 2,6\). It is also shown that a (3,2,1)- (or (1,3,2)-) conjugate orthogonal idempotent Latin square of order v exists for all positive integers \(v\neq 2,3,6\) with one possible exception \(v=12\). This result can be used to enlarge the spectrum of a certain class of Mendelsohn designs and provides better results for problems on embedding.
