I'll just go ahead and outline the problems that I see.

Sunday, you have chest & biceps. I assume that you do some form of bench press. Bench press is primarily a shoulder & triceps movement. You may even do some dips or something to work your chest...I don't know since you didn't list exercises. That would be a big load for triceps. On Monday, you're working your already toasted triceps again. That's not conducive to growth. You're also working your biceps on Sunday which will leave them less than 100% on Monday. The first thing that will become exhausted during a pulling movement is (9 times out of 10) biceps. So you can't have a good workout if your arms are too tired to complete their share of the work. It's like starting a race with bald tires...

Wednesday shouldn't be problematic unless you're deadlifting heavy on Tuesday...that will be a recipe for disaster.

Thursday...shoulders & traps. Working shoulders on a seperate day is fine if that's what you want. I prefer to do them when I hit my chest because it makes a little more sense to me. I have no idea why traps is there. It shouldn't be a problem though. You might consider working your traps on your back day since they're already getting hit pretty hard however, I don't think the added frequency on Thursday will be a huge problem.
