No. As a reasonable first guess, new filters start out with the
botanical name as the first column of every filter. This is entirely
optional. If you choose a different item to replace it, you will have a
surprisingly different looking specimen list. This is because the
first item in the filter is always displayed in the prominent top-half of
each specimen row. This position does not scroll left and right with
the rest of the list, but stays fixed to the left-hand side of the list. |

The same list, but with hay fever pollen shown in the prominent top-half.
