It looks like a systemic bacterial or fungal infection to me.
I recommend you try one of the following approaches:
1) Treat with a copper-based chemical, such as Phyton 27. It is a systemic bactericide/fungicide, but be aware that is toxic to some plants (usually not phals, in my experience).
2) Treat with a 1:50 (5 tablespoons/gallon) Inocucor Garden Solution, which is a formulation of more than a dozen beneficial bacteria and fungi that attack pathogenic ones. I did so with a phal that had acquired an erwinia infection, and it was gone in two days.
