Let A be the set of commuting elements in Ω, i.e A = {v Ω: vg = gv, g G}. In this paper, we extend the work on conjugate graph by defining a new graph called the orbit graph, denoted as Γ Ω G . The vertices of Γ Ω G are non central elements in Ω but not in A in which two vertices of Γ Ω G are adjacent if they are conjugate. Some graph properties are provided. Besides, the orbit graph of dihedral groups and quaternion groups is determined.
