A catalogue of errors

インターネットでBBC News April 26を見ていたら、知床の観光船事故のニュースが目に入りました。
What caused Japan's tourist boat tragedy?
A catalogue of errors appers to have led to the sinking of a boat carrying sightseers off northern Japan.
It's an old cliché, but an accurate one: disasters are not caused by a single mistake. Several things need to go wrong at the same time to cause a tragedy.
That appears to be exactly what happened on Saturday afternoon off the coast of Hokkaido in northern Japan.

"catalogue of errors" の意味は後に続く記事の内容で分かりますが、"catalogue" の単語をこの様に使うのは初めて知りました。
英英辞書で　"catalogue" の説明を見ます。
