It appears that shiitakes, or perhaps a very similar species, are occasionally found growing wild in the US. Here's a MO observation that seems to document the phenomenon: http://mushroomobserver.org/92324?q=2WOz3

(Can you please break it down at the introductory level for everyone to understand?)
oh balls. i uploaded the wrong image and then didn't cotton to what i did have. i wanted to bring attention to the conjugated ring system that has some distinct absorbtion peaks in THIS image:

i apologize for any confusion. i am not good at chromatography nor at explaining it other than for the most basic of explanations. you run/drip a volume of solvent through a column on/in which your sample is placed and then different bits of it move through the column at different paces depending on several factors, namely the matrix or what the column is packed with and the solvents, which you play with in terms of polarity to get things to move into discreet bands in your column which you then catch fractionally as they drip out the other end and then analyze using other methodes. or at least thats my understanding. lets have a pro give us a real-life lecture.

seeing this, i had a stupid thought cross my mind that i feel compelled to share. and remember, this has no bearing on anyone real, its just idle conjecture, seeing how this place ain't what i'd call a real babe-magnet pickup forum... what would happen if you did go to a real one like tinder and then used the screenname of mshrmlvr or huntingmshrooms or some shit... but then, who would do that.
but if anyone does... do come back and let us know how it worked out - for science!

Nicely done! Shiitake is the typical household name for those who might be reading this and wanted the common name.
You're up, myceliups!

I don't think so. It's an acid. It's categorized as a triterpenoid among the Eburicane-type triterpenes.

Oh - and this is one of the links: https://www.thieme-connect.com/products/ejournals/html/10.1055/s-0030-1270823
Wolfiporia extensa is the new name for Poria cocos, which is mentioned in some of the literature.
