    The authors determine (up to isotopy) the form of any semifield of type \((q^{2n},q^{n},q^{2},q^{2},q)\) when \(n\) is an odd integer, proving that there exist \((n-1)/2\) non isotopic potential families of semifields of this type. They also provide (with the aid of the computer) new examples of semifields of type \((q^{14},q^{7},q^{2},q^{2},q)\), when \(q=2\).
