Raith Rovers claimed a first win in 12 Scottish Championship games to deepen Queen of the South's relegation fears.
Matej Poplatnik's first-half strike from close range proved the difference at Palmerston.
Innes Cameron nearly equalised for Queens but shot straight at Jamie MacDonald, who also pushed Willie Gibson's free-kick round the post after the break.
Victory kept play-off chasing Raith within a point of fourth place.
But after successive defeats, second-bottom Queens' lead over Dunfermline is down to a point and they are six adrift of Hamilton in eighth.
