    Summary: We give a characterization of permutation polynomials over a finite field based on their coefficients, similar to Hermite's Criterion. Then, we use this result to obtain a formula for the total number of monic permutation binomials of degree less than \(4p\) over \({\mathbb F}_{4p+1}\), where \(p\) and \(4p+1\) are primes, in terms of the numbers of three special types of permutation binomials. We also briefly discuss the case \(q=2p+1\) with \(p\) and \(q\) primes.
