The conformal-Killing equation on G2 and Spin7 structures

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