Pale Moon by Moonchild Productions
Pale Moon offers you a browsing experience in a browser completely built from its own, independently developed source that has been forked off from Firefox/Mozilla code a number of years ago, with carefully selected features and optimizations to improve the browser's stability and user experience, while offering full customization and a growing collection of extensions and themes to make the browser truly your own.

Basilisk is a free and Open Source XUL-based web browser, featuring the well-known Firefox-style interface and operation.

Arctic Fox Web Browser by Riccardo
Arctic Fox aims to be a desktop oriented browser with phone support removed, or no longer updated in the tree.
The goal here is to implement specific security updates and bug fixes to keep this browser as up to date as possible for aging systems. Examples would be Mac OSX 10.6-10.8, PowerPC's running Linux, Windows XP, etc.
Evolution is a funny thing. Sometimes it means evolving out of the state you are currently in to something new but similar. These projects go beyond XUL by being based on Gecko/57 or newer.
