\textit{M. Biliotti} and \textit{G. Menichetti} have studied [J. Geom. 19, 50- 88 (1982; Zbl 0529.51006)] derived semifield planes \(\Pi\) admitting non- trivial affine elations with more than one centre. In the case when order of the plane is even, the affine elations generate a dihedral group in the translation complement of \(\Pi\). In this paper, the author examines the case when the order of the plane is odd, with the assumption that the group generated by the affine homologies in the translation complement of \(\Pi\) is dihedral. The structure of the semifields S coordinatizing such planes is determined. Also the class of the semifields S of dimension 4 over their centres is characterized.
