Am I hitting all main muscle groups?

For my second HST cycle, I am changing some exercizes around for variation.
But I am wondering if I am hitting all main muscle groups, or if some exercizes overlap?
I have picked these exercizes for my 2nd HST cycle:
legs:
- squat
- leg curl
- calf raise
upper body:
- bench press
- pulldown/chin up
- upright row
- arnold press
and finally arms:
- triceps extension
- biceps curl
I was hoping the upright row would replace the shrugs I did in my first cycle and the arnold press would replace the side and front raises that I did. And maybe the upper body exercizes also include enough triceps/biceps work?
TIA,
Rommeke
 
I think there's a little you're neglecting.
In my opinion, the following comprises a complete program:

Leg Pushing motion (leg press/squat)
Calf Pushing motion (Toe press, calf raise)
Something for hamstrings (stiff-legged deadlift, leg curl)
Something for lower back (some sort of deadlift, hyperextentions, etc)
Incline Push
Decline Push
Vertical Pull (pullups, pulldown)
Horizontal Pull (Rows)
Trap work (Shrugs)
Shoulder work (Lateral raises, rear delt raise, etc)
Arm Isolation

That's, at maximum like 13 exercises. If you leave out arm isolation, then as low as 10.
