We generalize Carlitz' result on the number of self reciprocal monic
irreducible polynomials over finite fields by showing that similar explicit
formula hold for the number of irreducible polynomials obtained by a fixed
quadratic transformation. Our main tools are a combinatorial argument and
Hurwitz genus formula.
