Abstract In [32], the first author gave a construction of strongly regular Cayley graphs on the additive group of finite fields by using three-valued Gauss periods. In particular, together with the result in [4], it was shown that there exists a strongly regular Cayley graph with negative Latin square type parameters (q 6, r (q 3+ 1),− q 3+ r 2+ 3 r, r 2+ r), where r= M (q 2− 1)/2, in the following cases:(i) M= 1 and q≡ 3 (mod 4);(ii) M= 3 and q≡ 7 (mod 24); and (iii) M= 7 and q≡ 11, 51 (mod 56). The existence of strongly regular Cayley graphs with the above parameters for odd M> 7 was left open. In this paper, we prove that if there is an h, 1⩽ h⩽ M− 1, such that M|(h 2+ h+ 1) and the order of 2 in (Z/M Z)× is odd, then there exist infinitely many primes q such that strongly regular Cayley graphs with the aforementioned parameters exist.
