Since I'm running OS 9.1, the last version of Mozilla i can use is
1.3.1. There appear to be two different versions, though. One can be
found at:

<http://www.t3.rim.or.jp/~harunaga/mozilla-macos9/>
Unofficial Mozilla for Mac OS 9 (Mac OS Classic)

The other is WaMCom, at:

<http://wamcom.org/>

Are these indeed different versions? If so, what are the differences,
and is there are reason to prefer one over the other?

TIA

The first page you mention explains what and how that build was arrived at
and also gives you this
# WaMCom 2003-06-24 release for Mac OS 9 is now available. WaMCom is a
distribution of Mozilla 1.3.1 with hundreds of additional bug fixes.
# Wazilla
wazilla-macos9-1.3f-7.sea.bin (15.8 MB) is now available. Wazilla is an
another Mozilla distribution applied several patches by Japanese
developers. 1.3f means Wazilla 1.3 version f.

So yes, indeed they are different versions.  Users of the differing
versions may be of more assistance as to which they prefer.  The reports
I have heard regarding the WamCom version have been good

I like and use Wamcom, it's excellent on Mac 8.6 - 9x. I have not tried
the Japanese distro, so cannot comment further
