Abstract: A Huff curve over a field $K$ is an elliptic curve defined by the equation $ax(y^2-1)=by(x^2-1)$ where $a,binK$ are such that $a^{2}e{b}^2$. In a similar fashion, a general Huff curve over $K$ is described by the equation $x(a{y}^2-1)=y(b{x}^2-1)$ where $a,binK$ are such that $ab(a-b)e0$. In this note we express the number of rational points on these curves over a finite field $mathbb{F}_q$ of odd characteristic in terms of Gaussian hypergeometric series $$ where $phi$ and $epsilon$ are the quadratic and trivial characters over $mathbb{F}_q$, respectively. Consequently, we exhibit the number of rational points on the elliptic curves $y^2=x(x+a)(x+b)$ over $mathbb{F}_q$ in terms of ${}_2{F}_1(lambda)$. This generalizes earlier known formulas for Legendre, Clausen and Edwards curves. Furthermore, using these expressions we display several transformations of ${}_2{F}_1$. Finally, we present the exact value of ${}_2{F}_1(lambda)$ for different $lambda$'s over a prime field $mathbb{F}_p$ extending previous results of Greene and Ono.
