I don't have any author names as tags.

What do you mean by series? In the Show list, I have the following tags that are NOT among my Calibre tags: 'custom', 'economics', 'epub', 'history', 'pdf', 'politics', 'world'. I imagine the MyBooks app is picking these labels up from somewhere in the metadata.
Sorry for my bad English.

In the Show list there are tags as provided in the book's metadata such as "general", "economics" + "history". I'm sure there must be books with these tags, somewhere.... You can use calibre to search for these and correct the metadata.

["epub" is a container such as a *.zip-file. Just rename it and you will be able to open it. There should be a file named "content.opf" or "metadat.opf" which contains the metadata, e. g.
<dc:subject>Non-Fiction</dc:subject>
<dc:subject>History</dc:subject>]

The Show list also displays any metadata for collections/series, e.g.
<dc:series>Sharpe</dc:series>
<meta name="calibre:series_index" content="14"/>

"epub", ""pdf" are the file types of your documents. So if you have different books by an author you can first choose "Author" and then only his epub-books.
