They are different.  Uninstall the one you don't want.  esr is long term 
support.

# aptitude purge firefox-esr 
(since that seems to be the one you don't want).  Or equivalent.  I don't know 
the correct apt-get incantation for purge, and as you probably wouldn't use 
it, I won't for now bother looking it up.  In Synaptic you probably find it 
in the installed list, and tick* it for removal.

* "tick" - across-the-pond-speak for one of the meanings of "check"
