Planta says this is an Alocasia Reginae. Does anyone know why these off white colors spots are forming?

Usually my alocasia’s curl like this when they need water , the white spot may be a fungal thing but I’m not sure!

Maybe check out the root system and see how it’s looking after a good watering :)

If any leaves don’t have these spots , I would consider keeping them and removing the other ones so the good leaves don’t get spots as well . You could also consider repotting it a couple days after you water it if it’s looking healthier too!

Thank you! I repotted \& Roots look good! I’ll remove the old leaves and see what happens 😁
