Same filter (it's implemented by libpcap/WinPcap, not Wireshark), the UI just makes it harder to set.

Open the Capture -> Options window and double-click on the interface on which you want to capture.  That should pop up a dialog for that interface that has a "Capture Filter" field.  Fill the filter in, and click "OK".  Make sure that interface is checked, update any other options you want to update, and click "Start".
