We consider a quaternately generalized Pfaffian QGPf(J(zi,zj,zk,zl)1)[J(z1,...,zN)]2 in which the square of Vandermonde determinant, [J(z1,...,zN)]2, implies the upmost Landau level is half filled. This wave function is the unique highest density zero energy state of a special short range interacting Hamiltonian. One can think this quaternate composite fermion liquid as a competing ground state of Moore-Read (MR) Pfaffian state at ν=5/2. The degeneracy of the quasihole excitations above the QGPf is higher than that of Moore-Read even Read-Rezayi quasiholes. The QGPf is related to a unitary conformal field theory with Z2×Z2 parafermions in coset space SU(3)2/U(1)2 . Because of the level-rank duality between SU(3)2 and SU(2)3 in conformal field theory, these quasiholes above this QGPf state obeying non-abelian anyonic statistics are expected to support the universal quantum computation at ν=5/2 as Read-Rezayi quasiholes at ν=13/5. The edge states of QGPf are very different from those of the Pfaffian's.
