Caterpillar Identification

Richmond, TX

Can someone please help me identify these guys!? I have found several of them living in the flowers of my milkweed while I was removing aphids off the plants.

Quite possibly larvae of a syrphid fly - these are voracious predators on aphids. See https://www.myfields.info/sites/default/files/PsLar.png for an example.
