I found out that these are indeed, the larvae of Lady Bugs. I'm glad I didn't pick them off. Sorry for posting but maybe it will help some one else,

Many people are not familiar with the ladybug larval stage, even fewer with the pupal stage, so your posting is useful.

I always though these looked like tiny Gila Monsters.

A most excellent photograph! Have you inspected your plant for aphids, the most likely reason for all of the ladybugs?

When this plant was young , it was infested with white flies but i got it under control with neem oil and now this plant is incredibly healthy and huge! The canopy is giant and has over 90 fruits on it. I've inspect the leaves every day and nothing major is going on. Its a heat-less Jalapeno plant.
