Turning .maf (Multiple Allignment Format) output to taxonomic data.

Hello everyone, I am using the LAST alligner to map sequence data to the SILVA_138.1_SSURef_NR99_tax_silva.fasta database. I get a .maf output file. I can extract the ascension ids myself. But I am not sure what the best course of action is to get to the taxonomic names, i.e. Phylum, class, order, family, genus species. Does anyone know what the best practice is from using .maf results to get taxonomic data?

Thanks,
