Is this the anamorph of Ophiocordyceps entomorrhiza?

On a beetle (Carabus problematicus) I found black wires (up to 20 mm long). Tip is white with a capitule (72 x 58 µm). Microscopy provided some conidia (4-6 x 2 µm) and conidipphores (diameter 2.8 µm). What Hirsutella is this?
Thank you for your help.

Re : Is this the anamorph of Ophiocordyceps entomorrhiza?
Hi all,
The conidiomata have developed further, so I took more pictures. The conidia measure:
8,59-14,83 x 2,62-3,16 µm. In the study "Phylogenetic classification of Cordyceps and the clavicipitaceous"(Studies in Mycology 57: 5–59. 2007) I red that Hirsutella eleutheratorum is the anamorph of Ophiocordyceps entomorrhiza. Here some more pictures.
Greetings,
François Bartholomeeusen
