A colony examination device (100) obtains, for each of a plurality of specimens containing colonies of bacteria, a piece of information used for identifying the specimen. Further, the colony examination device (100) arranges the pieces of information identifying the specimens, based on a time period a product represented by each of the specimens takes to arrive at a shipment delivery destination from a facility that produced the specimen, the time period being indicated in each of the obtained pieces of information identifying the specimens. Further, the colony examination device (100) displays the arranged pieces of information identifying the specimens, in a list.
