irregular patches
Random scattered marks
Irregular patches are areas that lack uniform shape, size, or distribution.
The phrase appears most often in medical and dermatological contexts describing skin discoloration or texture changes: The rash presented as irregular patches on her forearms.
It also describes uneven coverage of any kind—paint, vegetation, fog, or fabric wear: Irregular patches of snow remained on the hillside.
