Hey, I got this plant from my mom and wasn't sure what it was, at first I thought it was Alocasia zebrina, but now I'm thinking it could be a type of Anthurium.

definitely an alocasia and not an anthurium. it might be an alocasia zebrina but i’m not 100%

Ok that's what I though, especially because I noticed that there were some lines on the stalks just not very prominat, thanks for the help.
