Abstract: Let M be a 7-manifold with a G2-structure defined by phi inOmega^{3}_{+}(M). We prove that {phi} is conformal-Killing with respect to the associated metric g(phi) if and only if the G2-structure is nearly parallel. Let M be an 8-manifold with a Spin7-structure defined by psi inOmega^{4}_{+}(M). We prove that {psi} is conformal-Killing with respect to the associated metric g(psi) if and only if the Spin7-structure is parallel.
