Hibernian missed the chance to go level on points with Queen of the South as the two Scottish Championship sides drew a blank at Easter Road.
The hosts had the better of the play throughout, with Jason Cummings and Scott Allan going close early on.
Paul Hanlon had the best opportunity of the first period, his header cleared off the line by Queens' Matt Kerr.
Cummings shot wide from distance after the break and Paul Heffernan could not make the most of a decent opportunity.
