Hummingbird and Butterfly Gardening: No Monarch cats, 0 by Florida9

After moving to Florida two years ago, I have read these forums and learned a lot from the good folks at Dave's. Now this is the first year I have tried planting some larval food sources for butterflies. My passiflora is covered in Gulf Frit cats of all sizes, but my Asclepias have no Monarch cats. Actually, I have seen two small ones but then I never see them again. I'm afraid something is getting them. I looked all over the bushes and I found these small orange and black winged insects. I was wondering if anyone could ID them, and let me know if they are harmful to the cats. I will attempt to post a picture (my first attempt.) Thanks
