These lovelies are munching on passaflora incarnata all over my garden. So far, I'm happy to oblige. Does anybody know what they are?

Looks like caterpillars of the Gulf Fritillary butterfly.

If that's the case, I'm feeding a colony! Thanks so much!

Definitely Gulf Fritillary! They love passion flowers and I've been waiting for them to show up on my passion flowers... but haven't seen any yet. Great to hear you have a colony! - Nancy
