HttpClient exception localhost.fiddler

In my ASP.NET MVC application I use service hosted on localhost:33321, I try to monitor traffic using fiddler.

When I type address localhost.fiddler:33321 in web browser service is opens to but when I use service in app I get exeptions from HttpClient

Unable to find 'localhost.fiddler'

I think that problem is related to DNS service or fiddler local proxy.
