I am not 100% sure when amongst is more appropriate - I think I would have to see the rest of the sentence to say if it looked/sounded wrong!
I don't see 'amongst' used much really - I would guess it's one of those words slowly dropping out of the English language when it can be replaced by a slightly shorter word and still be understood!
