Face 2-colourable triangulations of complete tripartite graphs $K_{n,n,n}$ correspond to biembeddings of Latin squares. Up to isomorphism, we give all such embeddings for $n=3,4,5$ and 6, and we summarize the corresponding results for $n=7$. Closely related to these are Hamiltonian decompositions of complete bipartite directed graphs $K^*_{n,n}$, and we also give computational results for these in the cases $n=3,4,5$ and 6.
