No, you handledmthe key excellently.
But there are only 3 post DC, which worries me

But S. rossica (according to Cerretti's key) would have 3 DC ps. According to that key, if I understand it correctly, the characteristics that would allow it to be distinguished would be:
1. Narrow gena
2. 3 post DC (or 4, with the second one very weak)
3. Prementum as long as or longer than the head
4. T1+2 with mediomarginals
5. Dark brown tegula
5. Black spots around the abdominal setae
I haven't actually consulted any other keys.
