What are the tiny flies on this monarch caterpillar? Are they parasitic? And what are they doing to the caterpillar?

I watched the monarch get grabbed by the lowland leopard frog, which promptly spit it out. The monarch then flew off under a minute later.

There were so many caterpillars on my milkweed I had to go buy more. They devoured 6 milkweed plants back to the stems! So far I have found 9 chrysalis.

chloe_and_trevorDescription
Growing on a fairly steep talus slope. Fascinating growth habit for Delphinium.
Species account for closest match here, D. antoninum - also occurring on talus slopes: https://ucjeps.berkeley.edu/eflora/eflora_display.php?tid=22459. All the individuals we found on this talus slope had white sepals while the description in Jepson mentions blue. D. andersonii is a possibility as well: https://ucjeps.berkeley.edu/eflora/eflora_display.php?tid=22437.

Roosting for the night. I don't see it every year here, but no doubt when conditions are right, Monarchs migrate through the eastern NM counties more than we may know. I saw good numbers flying earlier in the day elsewhere in Lea County. To be submitted to Journey North as well

pjd1Description
Dead - found lying on sandy beach in strand line. A little surprised to see this as I have not seen this species on the Chatham Islands before and I have been going out there since 1996. However, the host plant (Gomphocarpus physocarpus) is on the island in private gardens - so there is no reason why this species should not be resident on the Chatham Islands.
