No interfaces shown

Installed Wireshark just an hour ago, so I'm really ignorant. Before I can capture traffic I need to select one or more interfaces, right? But when I select Capture / Options from the menu bar, a) no interfaces are shown, and in fact b) I'm pretty sure I'm looking at the wrong window. It's labeled "Wireshark - Capture Interfaces", alright. But the documentation leads me to expect a list with two icons plus columns headed Description, IP, Packets, Packets/s, whereas the column headers I see are Interface, Traffic, Link-Layer Header, Promiscuous, Snaplen (B), Buffer (MB), Monitor Mode, Capture Filter.
