You have a wheel bug nymph on your Mandevilla vine. They are considered beneficial insects. All stages prey on other insects - caterpillars, aphids, bees, sawflies etc. The adult is a large gray bug with a semi-circular spiked area on the thorax area of it's back hence the name wheel bug.

To see the adult and more about this insect check out this web site :
