Succulent problem

Hi, I have grown this succulent from very small. I don't know what it is ( was told it is quite rare) but recently it seems to have this threadlike pattern through many of the leaves. Could it be a worm??

I live in Brisbane , Australia and we have just come out of a dry winter. It has been outside all the time in a pot. Never below 6 degrees centigrade.The threadlike patterns I only noticed in the last couple of weeks when the weather became warmer. It also rained quite a bit over a few days two weeks ago.

Any ideas what it is and remedies?

    Your plant is most likely Kalanchoe pinnata ; don't think it's K.blossfeldiana , this has a thinner leaf . They are not particularly rare in cultivation .

    The damage resembles that caused by some worms ; though I would assume you have differing species to ours in Australia .
