Depending on how close you keep them to light it could be sun spots. I usually rotate my plans so they get an even amount of light and can prevent that

It kind of looks like a sun spot.

Update: they are for sure sunspots. Just found some on my alocasia Quicksilver. It happens when the plant is getting too much direct sunlight.

They do need more sun than the monstera deliciousa because of the white leaves. The monstera Thais and Albos don’t photosynthesis as well. But, direct light will scorch the leaves. You will now if the plant is not getting enough light, the white part will start browning if the plants needs more light.
