Moved, [kinda tentatively] based on:
-relatively broad prosternal process
-prominent clypeolabral suture
-aedeagus (from what I can make out in these images)
-relative lengths of antennomeres II-IV
The other two candidates in the area can be differentiated as follows:
S. estriatus: has a very narrow prosternal process
S. sagittiformis: has a shorter, broader median lobe and a longer antennomere III.

I can't key it from what I can see here. A dorsal shot of the head, showing the clypeolabral suture ('face') might help.

Just added the head shot.
Should be able to see what you are looking for under the higher resolution image. Again thank you for the help.
