Getting a list of OTUs that make up a higher level OTU

For instance, I am trying to analise the diversity of each phylum in a microbial community. It would make it easier if I could get a list of all OTU@0.1 or OTU@0.03 that are derived from a given OTU@0.2.

This is in version 1.8, in a command called out.hierarchy.
