can starbases spread influence?

50 turns back in the game I am currently playing, I set up a starbase on the edge of my borders and gave it several cultural modules.  I cannot tell if this alone spreads culture or if the starbase has to be in range of one of my planets.  So, can starbases spread influence without planets?

 

Are there any plans to add categories to the shipyards that might allow me to look at ships based on a feature such as the predominant offensive or defensive rating?

Yes, though the AI should make this more clear. Influence starbases have their own influence that they spread in the same way as planets. They also grant bonuses to the influence of planets in their range.
