There is not a filter for Genosians.

Because those are not species filters but faction filters (with in-built synergies). When Wookiees actually have synergy with each other they'll get that tag.

No, they’re species tags. As I said, when the game launched every character had a species tag in addition to a faction tag. Lando was tagged as a Scoundrel and as a Human. Darth Vader was Empire, Sith, and Human. I forget what faction tag Clone Wars Chewbacca had, I want to say just Scoundrel, but whether it was Scoundrel or Galactic Republic doesn’t matter to this point because the part that matters is he had the Wookie species tag.

The species tags were eventually removed because they didn’t want effects that targeted all humans, but faction tags remained and a lot of the species tags were folded into that system. Jawas, ewoks, droids, etc—those were edge cases that fit both a species and a faction, so once the species tags were removed only the faction utility remained. Well, to be extra accurate, there only ever really was any faction utility in the first place.

I have to say, I really dislike putting multiple versions of the same character on a team. There's 3 woolies, just a million versions of chewier.
